The Red Sox have acquired right-hander Zach Bryant from the Cubs to finish the Josh Osich trade, per Julian McWilliams of the Boston Globe (via Twitter).
The Red Sox sent Osich to the Cubs at the August 31st trade deadline last year for a player to be named later. Bryant now heads to Boston to complete that deal. The Cubs designated the southpaw for assignment at the end of September after he struggled to a 10.13 ERA in four appearances. Osich signed a minor league deal with the Reds in December.
The 22-year-old Bryant made his professional debut in 2019 after the Cubs drafted him in the 15th round out of Jacksonville University. He made it to Low-A posting a 1.27 ERA across 12 appearances at two levels, striking out 24 versus to eight walks over 21 1/3 innings.
