Cubs decide roster spot for former Yankees first baseman

The Chicago Cubs have made a roster decision regarding their 35-year-old former New York Yankees first baseman, who did not play for the Cubs last season. The player, earning $1.25 million, is now set to be part of the Cubs' lineup moving forward.

The Cubs, based in Chicago, compete in Major League Baseball's National League Central Division. Their recent form has been mixed, with a 1-4 loss at the San Diego Padres followed by a heavy 0-8 defeat at the same venue. They managed a 6-2 win at the Boston Red Sox but then suffered two more losses, 0-2 and 3-4, also against Boston.

Meanwhile, the New York Yankees, the former team of the first baseman, play in the American League East Division. Their latest results include a narrow 3-4 home loss to the Tampa Bay Rays and a series of defeats against the same team, following earlier wins over the Boston Red Sox.

The Cubs will look to improve their standing in the National League Central with this roster update. Their next fixtures will be crucial to reversing their recent losing streak and making a push in the competitive MLB season.
