CHICAGO — Kyle Tucker played his first major league games at Wrigley Field when the Houston Astros visited the Chicago Cubs in April. It was cold, he said, and a lot of fun. He noticed how much the fans loved their favorite team. Now he gets to have that experience on the Cubs side. Chicago acquired Tucker in a blockbuster trade last week, inserting the well-rounded star into a lineup in need of another dangerous bat. Tucker is eligible for free agency after the 2025 season, but he says he is open to talks on a long-term deal with the Cubs.
