Episode Details

The Chicago Cubs have secured their star infielder, Nico Hoerner, with a six-year, $141 million extension, keeping him with the team through 2032. This deal, the fourth-largest for a second baseman, follows his previous three-year, $35 million contract. Hoerner, a defensive standout with two Gold Gloves, has won over fans with his elite defense, speed, and .297 batting average. The Cubs are building a strong core, also signing center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong to a similar deal, and aim to contend beyond 2026, potentially with Hoerner leading the way for 14 seasons.
