Good for the Cubs. You know, baseball is better when the Cubs are good.

Kidding, Bob. Kidding.

4 In reality, it probably cost them an extra $8 million (4 per year). Not chump change, but also not significant enough to be "a lot" in the grand scheme of things. Not to mention, if he continues to produce, they might actually save money in the long run by locking him up for an extra three years (but probably not).
