The Chicago Cubs have extended the contract of manager David Ross through the 2024 season, the team announced Friday.
The club holds an option on Ross' contract for the 2025 season.
Ross signed a three-year deal, with an option year, to replace Joe Maddon before the 2020 season. The Cubs won the NL Central that year but fell short in the playoffs. The team wasn't as fortunate in 2021 as an 11-game losing streak in June changed the course of the franchise's season.
The team traded away star players Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant and Javier Baez last season, leading to a second-half collapse.
