Spring debut set for next week
Givens will make his Grapefruit League debut next week, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Givens has been doing work on the back fields rather than pitching in early spring games. Manager Brandon Hyde didn't offer up a specific debut date for Givens. The right-hander logged a 3.38 ERA and 1.32 WHIP with a 71:25 K:BB across 61.1 innings between the Cubs and the Mets last season. He figures to serve in a middle-relief spot to begin 2023, though a strong start to the campaign could see him in line for setup work.

Givens began the season setting up Daniel Bard in the Rockies bullpen. Considering what Coors Field can do to ratios, his 2.73 ERA and 1.31 WHIP through July 27 were impressive, prompting the Reds to acquire the righthander at the trade deadline. Givens struggled with Cincinnati, posting a 4.22 ERA and 1.45 WHIP after the trade. Even so, that was good enough to log eight saves and three holds with the Reds. Overall, Givens' 12.5% K-BB% was the worst of his career with his 11.4 percent swing strike mark his second lowest ever. Givens has always been able to pile up punch outs, but he's also walked too many to be trusted in high leverage scenarios for long stretches. He signed with the Cubs in March on a one-year deal and figures to be in the mix to close alongside Rowan Wick.
