Kyle Tucker is set to hit unrestricted free agency after one season as a member of the Chicago Cubs. As free agency begins, the Cubs extended the qualifying offer to Tucker on Thursday, a one-year offer worth $22 million.

The Chicago Cubs are "likely" going to part ways with Kyle Tucker this winter as the slugger seeks a contract north of $300 million in free agency, ESPN's Jeff Passan and Jesse Rogers reported Wednesday.

The players have until Nov. 18 to either accept and rejoin the Cubs for 2026, or decline and remain a free agent. If they sign with another team, the Cubs are eligible for draft compensation.

There will likely only be three or four teams in the league that could afford to sign Kyle Tucker for $400-plus million.
