Per Jeff Passan of ESPN, the Chicago Cubs and 3B Kris Bryant have agreed on an $18.6M salary for 2020 to avoid arbitration. That’s good to hear because frankly, Cubs nation is sick of Kris Bryant, the Cubs, and arbitrators all in the same sentence.

This does not impact the current playing time grievance that KB filed against the Cubs, but hopefully, we will know the outcome of that soon as well.
