Cubs bolster bullpen with veteran Drew Pomeranz
The Cubs are set to add left-hander Drew Pomeranz to their 40-man roster, clearing space by optioning Jordan Wicks. After a strong 2025 with Chicago and a rough start with the Angels in 2026, Pomeranz could again provide depth and late-inning versatility as Chicago copes with injuries; the Angels remain on the hook for about $4 million on his contract, while the Cubs will owe only the prorated portion of the minimum while he’s on their roster.
