The Chicago Cubs bullpen was feast or famine last season. In the first half of the 2024 campaign, the Cubs relief corps suffered through a full-on collapse with key bullpen pieces Adbert Alzolay and Hector Neris failing and 2023 relief asset Julian Merryweather falling to injury.

The article from Yardbarker discusses the potential breakout star for the Chicago Cubs in the 2025 season, focusing on their under-the-radar reliever, Luke Little. Despite not being a household name, Little has shown promise with his performance in the minor leagues, where he posted a 2.12 ERA over 34 appearances in 2023. His fastball, which can reach the mid-90s, combined with a deceptive delivery, has caught the attention of scouts and analysts. The Cubs' management has high hopes for Little, especially given the team's need for bullpen depth. His ability to miss bats and his potential for further development in command and secondary pitches make him a sleeper candidate to watch as the Cubs aim to bolster their relief corps for a competitive season.
