After a skid in recent years, the Cubs went 2-for-2 on extension talks to start the year.
Left fielder Ian Happ and the Cubs came to an agreement on a three-year, $61 million contract extension, according to multiple reports Wednesday.
Happ has followed up his 2022 All-Star season with a hot start, going 11-for-35 with five extra-base hits and six RBI in the first 10 games of the season.
As spring training came to a close, the momentum in extension talks between the two parties appeared to slow.
