    According to Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun Times, Marcus Stroman discussed an extension with the Cubs during Spring Training.

    Stroman, 32, has the ability to opt out of his three-year, $71 million deal after the season. Given how Stroman has pitched so far this season, the opt out seems likely should the pitcher remain healthy during the season.

    What kind of deal would you expect Stroman to receive in an extension? And what is a good comp for the diminutive hurler?

    I can't believe those talks got all that far. Stroman is in position to get a pretty good contract if he pitches well this season and Jed isn't going to be interested in him at the number he'll be seeking if that happens.

    I suspect this is the case as well.

    And frankly, I agree. I'm pretty wary of Stroman at this point in his career for a variety of reasons.
