The Chicago Cubs are targeting free agent starting pitcher Zac Gallen as they seek to bolster their rotation this offseason. Gallen, who had a down year with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2025, has drawn interest from multiple teams including the Cubs, Giants, Angels and Tigers. Recent rumors of a Cubs deal were quickly disputed by insiders.
Zac Gallen pitched six scoreless innings to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 1-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday in Phoenix. Corbin Carroll's first-inning solo home run off Tarik Skubal provided the game's only run. The win completed a sweep of the D-backs' season-opening home series.

Right-hander Zac Gallen remains one of the top unsigned free agents as spring training approaches. Three teams—the Diamondbacks, Cubs, and Orioles—are reportedly checking in on the 30-year-old pitcher. Earlier interest came from the Angels and Padres.
