I dont expect him to sign with the Cubs. They would have to be willing to nearly go over the tax penalty that would hurt draft position and I'm not sure they want to do that. They can certainly afford to do it but I would say theres probably a 5% chance hes on the Cubs next year.
I'm just having fun with you. Pretty much every nugget he and his wife have dropped on social media is related to Chicago and it's likely nothing more than driving his price up. However, I do believe if the Cubs were even competitive in AAV up to the opt out year he would probably sign with them.
