Former Chicago Cubs and Houston Asteos star outfielder Kyle Tucker has agreed to a four-year, $240 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to multiple reports.
Tucker’s $60 million average annual value, not counting discounts, would be the second-highest in baseball history behind Shohei Ohtani’s $70 million on a 10-year deal with the Dodgers that runs through 2033.
