Smith was ranked as the No. 73 overall prospect according to MLB Pipeline.<\/p>\n<p data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">The Tucker trade shook up the Cubs&#8217; roster. It resulted in the Cubs trading Cody Bellinger to the New York Yankees.<\/p>\n<p data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">Tucker was limited to 78 games due to a small fracture in his right shin in 2024, but had a stat line of .289\/.408\/.585, He hit 23 home runs and had 56 walks compared to 54 strikeouts. That led Tucker to his third straight MLB All-Star team.<\/p>\n<p data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">Tucker turns 28 on Jan. 17 and is under Cubs control only through the 2025 season. Tucker will either enter free agency next winter or try to reach an agreement on a contract extension with the Cubs.<\/p>\n<p data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">It&#8217;s very much a possibility that Tucker only plays one season for the Cubs.<\/p>\n<p data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">&#8220;We made this deal kind of understanding that this deal had to be worth it for one year of Kyle Tucker,&#8221; Cubs general manager Carter Hawkins said. &#8220;We certainly felt like that was the case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section data-v-3326d9ce=\"\">CubsSports<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chicago Cubs could not see eye-to-eye with the player they made a splash to acquire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":25106,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[139,44,50],"class_list":["post-25105","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb","tag-cubs","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
