The Cubs announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Jake Woodford. Right-hander Andrew Wantz has been designated for assignment in a corresponding move. He has allowed 4.20 earned runs per nine innings in that time with a 24.9% strikeout rate and 10% walk rate. In Triple-A this year, he has thrown 48 innings with a 5.63 ERA, 21.8% strikeout rate and 11.6% walk rate. His 18.7% strikeout rate is a few ticks below par but his 5.7% walk rate is really low.
