With the MLB regular season under a week away, time is running out for clubs to get pre-season extensions done. The timing isn’t a requirement, of course, and there’s often spillover into the first few weeks of the regular season if things are close, but it’s generally been the case that a lot of extension negotiations end when it’s time to focus on games.

For the Chicago Cubs, there has been nothing finalized on the extension front this offseason, despite some obvious potential targets. That includes pre-arbitration types like Pete Crow-Armstrong, as well as impending free agent types like Nico Hoerner.

A couple very modest updates on those two particular fronts, via Jon Heyman, who writes about 12 possible extension candidates in MLB.
