Peter Gammons went on Mully and Hanley on 670 The Score recently to discuss what the Chicago Cubs Kris Bryant and Washington Nationals Bryce Harper could make in free agency. After weighing in Gammons shocked the baseball community when he said this:
“I have people tell me that Bryce Harper, really, would prefer to play for the Cubs.”
Holy cow. While it’s natural to think that the Cubs, who certainly have the resources to make a run at any player, could afford to bring in Harper, the fact that he reportedly wants to be on the Cubs more than any other team has fans salivating.
