The 2023 MLB Draft concluded on Tuesday, but the Chicago Cubs are not done adding talent. After selecting 11 position players and 9 pitchers in the 20-round draft, the Cubs have now reportedly signed undrafted free agent Kenten Egbert, who pitched at Miami (Ohio) during his college career.

Egbert, 22, made 10 starts and had five more bullpen appearances during the 2023 season. The right-handed pitcher tossed 75 innings, posted a 3.96 ERA and recorded a solid 90/29 strikeout to walk ratio as a senior.

If you look at that highlight video, then you will immediately notice that old-school delivery with the exaggerated high leg kick. We’ll see if the Cubs make tweaks to that or have Egbert stick with it if he can keep making it work.

The right-hander began his college career during the postponed 2020 COVID season and Egbert struggled in his first four starts as a freshman before the world shut down. However, since then the starter has put up quality numbers, recording a 3.38 ERA in 133 innings since the beginning of 2021.

Since last summer, MLB removed its capped $20,000 signing bonus for undrafted free agents. There will be no maximum on the signing bonus an undrafted player can receive, although any amount over $125,000 will count against a team’s bonus pool.
