Back on August 31st of last season, the Boston Red Sox sent relief pitcher Josh Osich to the Chicago Cubs for a player to be named later. That player was finally named and it was 22 year old pitcher Zach Bryant. Bryant was a 15th round pick out of Jacksonville U by the Cubs in 2019 and he struck out 24 batters in 21 innings bouncing between rookie ball and Low A. As with every minor leaguer, he lost last season due to COVID so development has been delayed. Whether or not he is traded, flames out or develops is anyone's guess but the fact that Sox GM Chaim Bloom was able to get something for Osich is a miracle in itself. Welcome aboard Zach, see you in Salem.....if there is a season.
He looks happy....for now.
