Cubs' Star Tandem of PCA and Kyle Tucker Does Something Not Seen in Over 100 Years originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It's officially July, and the Chicago Cubs enter the month in good shape. They finished June with a 49-35 record and a two-game lead over the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central.

Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer maintained his stance on keeping contract negotiations out of the public sphere. But on Tuesday he acknowledged the obvious: “At some point” the Cubs will talk with three-time All-Star Kyle Tucker’s agent Casey Close about a possible extension.

If Jed Hoyer's bets continue to hit, everyone — from him to Tucker to the beer vendors to chairman Tom Ricketts — is going to cash in.
