Bobby Dean Howry (born August 4, 1973) is a Major League Baseball relief pitcher who currently plays for the Chicago Cubs. Howry attended McNeese State University and was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the fifth round of the 1994 MLB Draft.
Howry made his Major League debut with the Chicago White Sox in 1998. After being traded to the Boston Red Sox in 2002, Howry suffered right elbow problems that forced him to be put on the 60-day disabled list in late 2003. Howry successfully recovered from right elbow surgery and made a comeback with the Cleveland Indians in 2004. In a year and a half with the Indians, Howry posted an 11-6 record with 87 strikeouts and a 2.61 ERA.
In late 2005, Howry signed a three-year, $12 million deal with the Chicago Cubs.
