The Chicago Cubs outfielder shared his perspective on joining a new team as his success drives extension questions.

It's unfortunate that the market has shaped up the way it has over the past few years for the Chicago Cubs. With Kyle Tucker set to hit the free agency market at the end of this season, they'll have to pay a premium price. Tucker could be looking at as high as $500-$600 million, and is deserving of it.

In addition to Tucker's impending free agency this offseason, the Cubs could lose five more important players to the open market after 2026.
