Cubs signed C Austin Wynns to a minor league contract.

It didn’t take Wynns very long to find a new opportunity after being designated for assignment by the Rangers last week. The 35-year-old journeyman backstop has appeared in 34 games between the Athletics, Braves and Rangers this season. He’s merely emergency organizational depth at this stage of his career.

Rangers designated C Austin Wynns for assignment.

Wynns went 8-for-29 with one homer during a 14-game stint with the Rangers after being brought up last month. The well-traveled 35-year-old loses his roster spot with Danny Jansen back from the injured list. He’s spent time with three different organizations this season and figures to wind up back on the open market after going unclaimed on waivers.
