Garrett (1-1) earned the win over the Red Sox on Sunday, allowing one run on four hits and three walks with two strikeouts over five innings.
Garrett entered in the second inning and limited the Red Sox to one run despite throwing just 39 of 70 pitches for strikes. It was the 29-year-old's first major-league outing since May 19 with the Marlins, and he'll finish the regular season with a 7.71 ERA across just 9.1 frames. It's unclear if he will have a role with the Cubs in the postseason.

The Cubs recalled Garrett from Triple-A Iowa on Sunday.
The Cubs are locked into their playoff spot, so Garrett will be called up to serve in a long-relief role, with Shota Imanaga expected to work an abbreviated start for Sunday's regular-season finale. Garrett has started two games for the Cubs this season, allowing seven runs on seven hits and eight walks while striking out five across 4.1 innings.

The Cubs optioned Garrett to Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Garrett was called up from Iowa on Thursday, but he'll now be sent back down to Triple-A without making an appearance for the Cubs. His roster spot will be filled by Clay Holmes (fibula), who returns from the injured list to start Saturday's game against Kansas City.

The Cubs recalled Garrett from Triple-A Iowa on Thursday, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
Acquired from the Marlins at the trade deadline, Garrett's role with the Cubs for now appears to be as a long-relief option. The left-hander has been tagged for seven runs with a 5:8 K:BB over 4.1 innings in the majors this season, but he's collected a 2.90 ERA and 83:29 K:BB covering 77.2 frames in 2026 at the Triple-A level.

The Cubs acquired Garrett from the Marlins on Monday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Garrett becomes the second starting pitcher the Cubs have acquired in the less than 24 hours, after Chicago previously swung a deal for Kevin Gausman on Sunday. Though Gausman will immediately settle into a starting role with the Cubs, Garrett is likely to join the rotation at Triple-A Iowa to begin his time in the organization. After missing the entire 2025 campaign while recovering from UCL revision surgery with an internal brace, Garrett has enjoyed sound health this season but wasn't able to carve out a role at the big-league level with the Marlins. The 28-year-old southpaw made just two appearances in Miami and had instead been making regular starts at Triple-A Jacksonville, where he submitted a 2.98 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 88:32 K:BB across 81.2 innings.

The Marlins optioned Garrett to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.
After being called up from Jacksonville on May 14 to replace the injured Robby Snelling (elbow) in the rotation, Garrett didn't perform well enough to earn a longer-term stay with the big club. Between his starts against Minnesota and Atlanta, Garrett covered just 4.1 innings and allowed seven earned runs while walking more batters (eight) than he struck out (five). The Marlins have yet to announce a new fifth starter, but Thomas White was scratched from his scheduled outing with Jacksonville on Wednesday and appears to be the leading candidate to enter the big-league rotation.
