Breaking News: Scott Kingery, the veteran infielder, is back in the game, signing a minor league deal with the Chicago Cubs! This move, announced on Tuesday, December 2nd, 2025, also includes an invitation to the Cubs' spring training camp – a chance for Kingery to prove his worth and potentially earn a spot on the big league roster.
Kingery, now 31 years old, is looking to revitalize his career. Last season, he played in 19 games with the Los Angeles Angels, where he batted .148, going 4 for 27 at the plate and scoring 3 runs.
But here's where it gets interesting: Kingery's career hasn't always been this challenging. His most successful season came in 2019 while playing for Philadelphia. He hit .258, blasted 19 home runs, and drove in 55 RBIs across 126 games.
Overall, in his six-season career, Kingery has a batting average of .227, with 30 home runs and 96 RBIs in 344 games. This new contract with the Cubs presents a significant opportunity for Kingery. Can he recapture the form he showed in 2019? Will he be able to make the Cubs' big league roster? What do you think about this move? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
