Former National League MVP Cody Bellinger and the Chicago Cubs have agreed to a $17.5 million, one-year contract.
A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed the contract to USA TODAY Sports' Bob Nightengale. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the deal has not been officially announced by the Cubs.
Bellinger, the 2019 NL MVP, was cut by the Los Angeles Dodgers on Nov. 18 after the 27-year-old outfielder hit .210 with 19 homers, 150 strikeouts and a .654 OPS in 144 games. He had a $17 million contract this season and likely would have received a slight raise in arbitration. Bellinger was limited to 95 games during the 2021 regular season when he was on the injured list three times and batted .165. He hit .353 in 12 games in that postseason and had the go-ahead RBI single in Game 5 of the NL division series against the rival San Francisco Giants. Bellinger also had a tying, three-run homer against Atlanta in Game 3 of the NL championship series.
