Saw this and had me thinking...
Cubs get their new tv deal in 2019...
Bryant and Rizzo don't become FA til 2021..
All they realistically need to do is slowly increase his contract over the first couple years and back load the rest..
Bryant really wants to play with his buddy, he'll ask for a fair , reasonable deal.
Rizzo will be 32 in 2021 after his contract expires..
Heyward if he doesn't opt out deal expires after 2022.
Basically just need to try and stay away from having to overpay any other FAs next 2-3 years..
Far as where he plays...
Depends on Heyward opting out or not ..
If Heyward stays they can easily move Heyward to LF and Harper RF
Schwarber traded...
