Cubs Weigh Options Between Cody Bellinger and Matt Chapman

With Bellinger's asking price at $200 million, the Cubs consider Chapman as a more affordable alternative.

Cody Bellinger, one of the top four remaining free agents, is yet to find a team for the upcoming season, with the Toronto Blue Jays and the Chicago Cubs emerging as top suitors.
Bellinger's price is believed to be $200 million, a sum that the Cubs might find a little over the bar.
The Cubs are also considering Matt Chapman as a top prospect if they fail to land Bellinger, as Chapman could be a more affordable option.
The San Francisco Giants, New York Mets, Seattle Mariners, and Los Angeles Angels have shown interest in Bellinger but are not ready to meet his asking price.
Bellinger's agent, Scott Boras, is known for sticking to high contract demands and is not afraid to carry a player into late winter as a free agent.
