The Chicago Cubs will be looking to extend multiple players in the next few seasons before they reach free agency, Javier Baez will be a lock to sign the extension.

The Javier Baez era in Chicago started back in 2011 when the Chicago Cubs took him with the ninth pick in the first round. The 2011 draft class was the last of the Jim Hendry regime. The next season Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer took over the front office, and they have stuck with Baez over the years.
