Pretty good back-up for Napoli. Thought Texas needed/wanted pitching a bit more than hitting, but not a bad depth move for them.

John Arguello from Cubs Den:
Since a lot of you have asked: Brigham has a live arm, has touched 97, good but inconsistent curve, change needs work, probably a RP

Seems like the best part about new #Cubs RHP Jacob Brigham is he's the nephew of Ron Karkovice. #WhiteSox #ipredict7karkointerviewstomorrow

This was probably the worst time to trade Geo. I don't think his stock has ever been so low. Oh well, he definitely wasn't in the future plans. On to tomorrow!

They obviously should've traded him after 2010, but naturally the Cubs needed to contend :lol:
