Career
Payne graduated from Hurricane High School in Hurricane, West Virginia, and attended West Virginia State University, where he played college baseball for the West Virginia State Yellow Jackets. The Cubs selected Payne in the 30th round, with the 893rd overall selection, of the 2015 MLB draft.[1]
Payne did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] Payne spent the majority of the 2021 season with the Double-A Tennessee Smokies, also appearing in 1 game for the Triple-A Iowa Cubs, hitting a cumulative .231/.291/.363 with 4 home runs and 30 RBI in 60 games. The Cubs promoted Payne to the major leagues for the first time on October 3, 2021.[3] He made his major league debut that day as a pinch hitter.[4] He was designated for assignment by the team on October 18, 2021.[5] On November 16, Payne re-signed with the Cubs on a minor league contract.[6]
