4/09/25	3 takeaways from Chicago Cubs’ series win, including clutch two-out hits and Jon Berti stepping up. As a fly-ball pitcher, home runs are inevitably part of left-hander Shota Imanaga’s game. He averaged nearly one home run allowed per start last year, yet he still was one of the best starters in the league because most of that damage came with nobody on base. The Texas Rangers took Imanaga deep twice Wednesday, one of which was a two-run homer as part of a four-run fifth inning. Imanaga’s day ...

3/17/25	Latest Los Angeles Angels injury confirms the Cubs avoided an offseason mistake. Not enough Chicago Cubs fans are putting respect on Jon Berti's name. As Cubs fans try to predict what the team's Opening Day roster may look like, the decision that is at the heart of the construction is the final spot on the team's bench. The two players fighting for that spot are Vidal Bruján and Gage Workman. Given that Workman is a Rule 5 draftee and Bruján is out of minor-league options, the injury to Nico Hoerner allowed the Cubs to roster both players for their games against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Japan this week.

Jon Berti would get $150,000 each for 200 and 250 plate appearances as part of the deal announced Jan. 28. He would get $300,000 apiece for 400 and 450, and $400,000 for 500.

2/05/25	Jon Berti slams Dodgers' trash talking of Yankees after the World Series. Jon Berti didn't appreciate the trash talk that came from the Dodgers clubhouse after Los Angeles defeated the Yankees in the World Series last October. In fact, the disrespect crossed a line in Berti's mind to the point that they were diminishing what the Yankees had done to reach the Fall Classic in the first place. “I don't know if I've ever heard a World Series-winning team talk as badly as they did about the World Series-losing team,” Berti said on “Foul Territory” on Wednesday . “It felt like we were being disrespected to the point of we didn't even belong in the World Series.” Berti spent last season with the Yankees and played in four postseason games during the team's run to the World Source: https://nypost.com/2025/02/05/sports/jon-berti-sla...
1/31/25	Cubs Rumors: Alex Bregman isn't the only position player target. Over the course of the past month, the Chicago Cubs have raised the floor of production for their bench with the additions of Jon Berti and Vidal Bruján. The Cubs don't appear to be done adding position players to their Major League roster either. Of course, in recent weeks, the Cubs have found themselves directly involved in the sweepstakes for All-Star third baseman Alex Bregman. Source: https://cubbiescrib.com/cubs-rumors-alex-bregman-i...

1/27/25	What Role Could Newly-Signed Veteran Have With Chicago Cubs This Season?. The Chicago Cubs made an interesting move when they signed veteran Jon Berti to a deal. Despite the prevailing thought that star prospect Matt Shaw will be the Opening Day starter at third base this season, the front office didn't explicitly state that, and instead, even offered they were still weighing their options. The one-year, $2 million contract for Berti seems to be some insurance in case the youngster isn't quite ready to be the everyday guy at the hot corner when the season begins.

1/23/25	Ex-New York Yankees Utility Man Jon Berti Signs MLB Deal With Cubs. After an injury-riddled stint with the New York Yankees last season, utility man Jon Berti is now in agreement on a contract with the Chicago Cubs. The deal was first reported by MLB insider Robert Murray of FanSided via X. Per MLB.com's Mark Feinsand, Berti's contract is guaranteed for $2 million, and there is the potential for a further $1.3 million in performance bonuses. Berti, who turned 35 on Wednesday, was acquired by the Yankees last March from the Miami Marlins in a three-team trade with the Tampa Bay Rays that sent backup catcher Ben Rortvedt from the Bronx to Tampa.

1/22/25	Chicago Cubs Add Experienced Free-Agent Infielder on One-Year Deal. The Chicago Cubs have added some infield depth on Wednesday evening. As first reported by Robert Murray of FanSided, the Cubs have agreed to terms on a deal with former New York Yankees infielder Jon Berti. After Murray first broke the news of the agreement, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com clarified it would be a one-year deal with a guarantee of $2 million including another possible $1.3 million with performance related incentives. There will be a corresponding move given the fact Chicago already has a full 40-man roster and upon finalizing the deal will have to clear a spot for Berti.

11/24/24	How dumping a reliever and utility player could help the Yankees. Dumping Jon Berti and Tim Mayza was not exactly shocking news, but the move the New York Yankees made before Friday's non-tender deadline does give them more financial flexibility to make that big splash in the free agent market, the New York Daily News' Gary Phillips wrote. With a 4.00 ERA over 15 regular season games, the Yankees decided to pass on Mayza and now go into the offseason without a left-hander committed to the bullpen.

MLB Yankees non-tender Jon Berti as Mets dump former top prospect before deadline By Dan Martin Published Nov. 22, 2024, 8:53 p.m. ET Jon Berti, who started three postseason games at first base for the Yankees when Anthony Rizzo was out with fractured fingers, was non-tendered by the team prior to Friday's deadline, The Post confirmed. Berti, acquired by the Yankees last spring from the Marlins in a three-team trade after DJ LeMahieu was injured, was hurt for most of the year and appeared in just 25 regular-season games. And while the Yankees wait on Juan Soto's free agency, they avoided arbitration with the other outfielder they picked up in the same trade with San Diego, Trent Grisham, and Source: https://nypost.com/2024/11/22/sports/yankees-non-t...

10/08/24	Troy grad Berti turns dazzling unassisted double play in professional debut at first as Yankees lose in ALDS. Troy High grad Jon Berti looked like a Gold Glove winner in his first professional game at first base. Forced to use backups following Anthony Rizzo's injury, the New York Yankees started Berti at first base in Monday night's 4-2 loss to the Kansas City Royals that evened their AL Division Series at one game apiece. Berti made a clean pickup of Yuli Gurriel's tricky second-inning squibber over the bag, then a diving stab for an unassisted double play in the sixth to save at least one run — maybe two.

9/09/24	Jon Berti returns from injury as lefties loom for Yankees. Jon Berti, who had been out since a left calf strain on May 24, was summoned and did not know how he would be used. The righty-hitting utilityman played third base and left field during his rehab assignment and would be a fit against lefty pitchers. It is possible that lefty-swinging Jazz Chisholm Jr. sits against some southpaws. The Yankees will face off against lefty Cole Ragans on Wednesday. Jon Berti celebrates in the dugout. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST “I'm just excited to be here,” Berti said. “I'm just here to help the team any way I can.” Berti, who had stolen four bases in 17 games with the Yankees this year and led the majors in 2022 with 41 steals, also could become a late-inning Source: https://nypost.com/2024/09/09/sports/jon-berti-ret...
