Cubs reliever and ex-Astros closer Ryan Pressly joined Chicago in a trade from Houston late last month, which followed December's blockbuster deal that sent three-time All-Star Kyle Tucker to Chicago. Pressly said Tuesday he's been in contact with Bregman occasionally this winter. Pressly added he's taking a more relaxed approach with his pitch.
