Chicago Cubs agree to a 1-year contract with first baseman Carlos Santana, AP source says

August 31, 2025 by Houston Chronicle

The Chicago Cubs have added Carlos Santana, agreeing to a one-year contract with the veteran first baseman that puts him in the mix for the playoffs, according to a person familiar with the deal. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because the move hadn’t been announced by the team. The Cubs also claimed right-hander Aaron Civale off waivers from the White Sox before their series finale at Colorado. Right-hander Porter Hodge was recalled from Triple-A Iowa, and left-hander Jordan Wicks was sent down. Tom Cosgrove, another lefty, was designated for assignment.
