4/26/25 MLB insider floats lifeline to Cubs fans begging for Kyle Tucker contract hope. The discourse of Kyle Tucker will always be centered around his next contract and whether or not the Chicago Cubs will be able to get an extension done in-season before Tucker hits free agency next winter. Tucker has been everything the Cubs hoped for when they traded for him last December. Entering play on Saturday, Tucker is carrying an 181 wRC+ with 7 home runs through his 128 plate appearances this season. Tucker's hot start to the season has begged the question of why he would even entertain signing a new contract during the season, but it's not as impossible as Cubs fans may think it is.

4/25/25 Cubs' Kyle Tucker gets $500 million contract comparison from MLB insider. Kyle Tucker has been fantastic in a Chicago Cubs uniform so far, but it's unfortunately hard not to put the cart ahead of the horse. The Cubs and their fans have been stressing ever since they landed Tucker with only one year of team control before free agency. As much as Chicago might love to sign him to a long-term extension before he hits the open market, it's unclear whether they stand any chance to do so. Tucker was already slated to make a fortune when he hit the open market.

4/24/25 The truest Kyle Tucker rumor is one that Cubs fans will never know about. The Chicago Cubs' front office has stressed that the goal is to make Kyle Tucker fall in love with Wrigley Field before approaching the superstar outfielder with contract extension talks, and it would seem that the first part has already been accomplished. Over the past week, Tucker has hit a home run in multiple games in which the Cubs were seemingly facing an insurmountable lead before completing an incredible comeback. Considering these games were also against the National League contenders in the Arizona Diamondbacks and Los Angeles Dodgers, Wrigley Field has already had a special feel to it this season.

4/23/25 Latest Kyle Tucker prediction confirms Astros biggest mistake. No matter what the front office wants to say, and despite getting back a decent return, Tucker is one of the top players in Major League Baseball, and he's set to get a massive deal in free agency because of that. Reuter predicted that Tucker will be looking for just $300 million, a very low price point compared to some of the other top players in Major League Baseball.

4/23/25 Cubs, Dodgers meet in early end to season series after big Chicago win. The Chicago Cubs will look to continue to flex their offensive muscle on Wednesday night when they conclude their season series against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers. The win in the opener of an abbreviated two-game set tied the season series at three wins apiece. Kyle Tucker hit a two-run homer for Chicago in the eighth inning, Miguel Amaya launched a solo shot with two outs in the ninth, and Ian Happ capped a four-hit performance with an RBI single in the 10th for the victory.

4/22/25 Astros trade pitch lands former 39-homer slugger to boost ailing offense. After losing lineup cornerstones Kyle Tucker and Alex Bregman this offseason, it's no surprise that the Houston Astros' offense has taken a step back in 2025. The club currently ranks just 23rd in Major League Baseball with 84 runs scored, a steep drop off from placing 11th in 2024. The 'Stros also rank in the bottom third of the league in batting average, home runs and OPS and don't have a single player with an OPS above .750. While veterans Yanier Diaz (.404 OPS) and Christian Walker (.156 average) are certain to get going at some point, the Astros' lineup imbalance looks to be a major problem.

4/21/25 Chicago Cubs shouldn't overlook one player's incredibly slow start to 2025 season. Life is pretty easy for the Chicago Cubs' offense right now. The Cubs' four-hit effort against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday notwithstanding, the Cubs' offense has been carrying the team. Of course, the immediate reason for that success is Kyle Tucker. The arrival of Tucker provided instant confirmation of what the Cubs lacked last season--an impact bat that can hide other areas of deficiency on the roster.

4/20/25 Chicago Cubs Found Stunning Offensive Force in New Backup Catcher. The Chicago Cubs are off to an amazing start to the 2025 season all things considered. A big reason for their hot start is their play at the plate. The Cubs are slashing .264/.436/.462 as a team with 34 home runs and 143 runs scored. Players like Kyle Tucker, Seiya Suzuki and Michael Busch are all playing well.

4/19/25 Cubs' hopes for Kyle Tucker contract extension shot down by MLB insider. The Chicago Cubs took a big risk with the Kyle Tucker trade. Tucker, the 27-year-old superstar outfielder, has been fantastic for the first-place Cubs so far. At this point, Tucker is the clear number-one free agent in the upcoming winter's class.

4/18/25 Tucker hits 2-run HR, Cubs score 6 in 8th after giving up 10 in top half to beat Diamondbacks 13-11. Kyle Tucker had the fans on their feet, roaring and pumping their fists as he rounded the bases after hitting the go-ahead two-run homer in the eighth inning. His screaming line drive cleared the right-field wall with plenty of room to spare. The Cubs went from giving up 10 in the eighth to scoring six in the bottom half and beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 13-11 on Friday in one of the wildest games on record. The Cubs are just the seventh team in at least the past 125 seasons to allow 10 or more runs in an inning and win. They are also one of five teams to give up 10 or more runs and score six or more in the same inning.

4/18/25 Cubs superstar Kyle Tucker receives $500 million extension update from MLB insider. Superstar outfielder Kyle Tucker has been a godsend to the Chicago Cubs, but the partnership could be over in the blink of an eye. The Cubs knew they were taking a gamble by sending three very good players to the Houston Astros in December to get their hands on Tucker. Tucker will hit free agency in the winter unless the Cubs can somehow work out a long-term extension with him before November. One MLB insider recently provided an update about where the Cubs stand with Tucker--and how much it might cost to keep him in the Windy City.

4/17/25 Cardinals Could Land Top Pitching Prospect From Hated Cubs In Rare Trade Scenario. The St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs have one of the league's most bitter rivalries but could these two historic franchises meet for a rare blockbuster trade this summer? After trading for former Houston Astros slugger Kyle Tucker this past winter, the Cubs are determined to make a deep playoff run this Oct. before the three-time All-Star becomes a free agent for the first time in his career this upcoming offseason. Meanwhile, the Cardinals are in a transitional period -- stuck between rebuilding and contending. Given how desperate the Cubs might be to bolster their pitching staff before the July 31st trade deadline, perhaps St. Louis and Chicago could partner for an unexpected deal.

How much can the Chicago Cubs realistically expect to pay if they want to ensure they don't lose Kyle Tucker in free agency? The Cubs certainly knew they had a tall task in front of them when they first traded for Tucker from the Houston Astros. Tucker is now the runaway number-one impending free agent on the board thanks to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s extension with the Toronto Blue Jays.
