Hunter Bradford Bigge (born June 12, 1998) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Chicago Cubs of Major League Baseball (MLB).
Career[edit]
Bigge attended Los Gatos High School in Los Gatos, California,[1] and Harvard University, where he played college baseball for the Harvard Crimson. Bigge played collegiate summer baseball in the Northwoods League, where his fastball reached 95 miles per hour (153 km/h).[2]
The Cubs selected Bigge in the 12th round of the 2019 MLB draft.[3] He signed with the Cubs rather than start an internship with BlackRock. Bigge worked for a financial startup during the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown and missed playing time during the 2021 season due to a torn labrum.[2][4]
On July 7, 2024, the Cubs selected Bigge to the 40-man roster and promoted him to the major leagues.[4]
