Availability
Colin Rea has agreed to a one-year, $6.5 million extension with a club option in 2027.
Fantasy Impact
What started as a bullpen role turned into an effective season in the Cubs' rotation for Rea. With the departure of Shota Imanaga, Rea could find himself in the rotation to start the season.
Colin Rea allowed no earned runs on just two hits and one walk while striking out seven over 5.2 innings in Friday's win against the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact

Colin Rea allowed one earned run on four hits and no walks while striking out 11 over seven innings in Thursday's narrow loss to the Reds.
Fantasy Impact
After today’s performance, Rea holds a 4.10 ERA and 1.26 WHIP with a 10-7 record across 26 starts this season. This outing marks the second time he's gone at least seven innings this year, and the first game he's had more than eight strikeouts in a single start. He's never been a big strikeout pitcher, but the Reds strike out the fifth most against right-handed pitchers. If the Cubs stick with a six-man rotation, Rea would be in line to face the Mets next week.
Colin Rea allowed three earned runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out five over 5 1/3 innings in Saturday’s loss to the Rays.

Colin Rea allowed three runs on five hits over four innings on Monday against the Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Rea continued his recent struggles. He'll look to get back on track against the Nationals.
