The Cubs selected Phegley's contract Thursday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The addition of Phegley to the 40-man roster and 30-man Opening Day roster gives the Cubs a third catcher behind Willson Contreras and Victor Caratini. If both of the options ahead of him on the depth chart stay healthy throughout the 60-game season, Phegley likely won't be in store for anything more than one start per week.
