The top of this offseason’s free agent lists are littered with former Cubs.
Notable names range from Kyle Schwarber, a beloved member of the 2016 World Series team who was an NL MVP finalist for the Phillies this year, to Dylan Cease, a former Cubs prospect and sixth-round draft pick who spent the first five years of his major-league career with the White Sox and last two with the Padres.
They include a more recent departure, Cody Bellinger, whose two years with the Cubs spring-boarded him into a strong 2025 season as a Yankee.
