Cubs considered the favorites to sign Bryce Harper

The dream of Bryce Harper playing for the Cubs may be more real than people imagined, as oddsmaker Bovada currently has the Cubs listed as the favorites to sign the Nationals superstar.

With a 3/2 odds, the Cubs are heavy favorites to sign Harper, and with Harper and Kris Bryant's relationship on top of the Cubs being one of the most consistent teams in the National League over the last half-decade it's easy to see why Harper in Chicago makes sense.

What doesn't make sense, however, is how many fans said they'd prefer the Cubs to pass on Harper back in August, however that might all change when fans see Harper do things only Bryce Harper can.
