Los Angeles Dodgers target Cubs’ star in a blockbuster $500M offseason move. Can they outbid rivals to secure the star outfielder?

The Athletic's Patrick Mooney, Will Sammon, Brendan Kuty and Ken Rosenthal previously reported that the Dodgers "capped their offer to Soto at $600 million" before the star outfielder signed his 15-year, $765 million deal with the Mets last winter.

A recent report from Bob Nightengale of USA Today detailed Los Angeles’ potential next move: going after Chicago Cubs outfielder and pending free agent Kyle Tucker.

The bad news is that All-Star outfielder Ian Happ is heading to the injured list. The 30-year-old leadoff man has missed the Cubs' last three games with an oblique injury and will now be out awhile longer. On the plus side, Chicago is calling up one of its top prospects to replace him in the lineup.

One MLB insider believes the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs should prioritize acquiring this former All-Star.

With the trade rumors always surrounding Nolan Arenado, the Cubs could be a team to pursue as hinted by Buster Olney.

Los Angeles Dodgers ace left-hander Clayton Kershaw will make his season debut on Saturday against the visiting Los Angeles Angels.

With the contract dilemna of Kyle Tucker looming large, could the Cubs have competition from the reigning World Series Champions?

The Los Angeles Dodgers reportedly plan on pursuing Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Tucker in free agency offseason, per MLB insider Bob Nightengale. More news:
