The Chicago Cubs are re-signing left-handed reliever Caleb Thielbar after a strong 2024 season, sources tell CHGO and Jeff Passan. Thielbar, 38, posted a 2.64 ERA in 67 games, providing a steady and reliable lefty presence in the Cubs bullpen last year. On the CHGO Cubs Podcast, hosted by Luke Stuckmeyer, Joey Christopoulos, and Justin Roman, we break down why this move matters, how Thielbar fits alongside newcomer Hoby Milner, and what it means for Chicago’s pitching depth. The deal is pending a physical as the Cubs continue to shape their bullpen for the upcoming season.
