More 'Belli' time for the Northsiders.

According to ESPN, Chicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger has picked up his $27.5 million player option for the 2025 season and will not be a free agent.

The 29-year-old signed a three-year, $80 million deal with player options for the 2025 and 2026 seasons.

Bellinger hit .266 with 23 doubles, 18 homers, and nine stolen bases in 2024.

This likely means that Bellinger will be the starting right fielder in 2025 as Seiya Suzuki will stay at his designated hitter role mostly.
