BREAKING NEWS: Cubs Officially Announce The Return of Former Star Cody Bellinger After Lengthy Free Agency Silence

Posted on May 23, 2025

The Chicago Cubs have officially announced the return of former star Cody Bellinger, ending a prolonged free agency period. Bellinger, who had the option to enter free agency, chose to stay with the Cubs for the 2025 season, earning \$27.5 million. His contract includes a \$2.5 million buyout and another opt-out option after 2025 .

Bellinger had a standout showing on a one-year deal with the Cubs in 2023, hitting .307 with 26 homers, 97 RBIs, 95 runs, 20 steals, and an .881 OPS. He picked up a Silver Slugger Award, was named the National League’s Comeback Player of the Year, and received down-ballot votes for the NL MVP trophy. This past season, a pair of injuries—fractured ribs and a broken finger—limited him to 130 games. Despite these setbacks, he posted a .266 batting average with 18 homers and 78 RBIs .

Cubs President of Baseball Operations Jed Hoyer expressed enthusiasm about Bellinger’s return, highlighting his value both on and off the field. Teammates, including Ian Happ, also welcomed the news, emphasizing Bellinger’s impact on the team’s dynamic.

Bellinger’s return is seen as a significant move for the Cubs as they aim to strengthen their roster for the upcoming season.
