The Chicago Cubs have not yet engaged in contract extension talks with outfielders Ian Happ and Seiya Suzuki, both of whom are set to hit free agency after the 2026 season. With Kyle Tucker’s recent departure, the Cubs face uncertainty in their outfield, particularly with Happ and Suzuki’s potential exits. Although Happ has a solid track record, winning a three-year extension in 2023, Suzuki has been more bat-focused with mixed defensive metrics. The Cubs could explore both internal and external options for filling gaps in their roster ahead of next season.
