Cubs Exec Has Worrying Comments on Kyle Tucker's Future in Chicago originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The biggest question surrounding the Chicago Cubs remains if they can re-sign star outfielder Kyle Tucker to a long-term deal this offseason.

Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer maintained his stance on keeping contract negotiations out of the public sphere. But on Tuesday he acknowledged the obvious: “At some point” the Cubs will talk with three-time All-Star Kyle Tucker’s agent Casey Close about a possible extension.

"Kyle Tucker is a player you want to have for a long time," Hoyer said. "He's been one of the best players in baseball this year."
