The Chicago Cubs and Colorado Rockies have discussed the possibility of a blockbuster trade.
According to a report, they have discussed a one-for-one deal that would send Kris Bryant to the Rockies in exchange for Nolan Arenado.
Colorado would likely pay some of the $234 million that remains on Arenado\'s contract.
“This is something I heard very recently -- that, yes, Arenado would love to play for the Cubs,\" ESPN\'s Jesse Rogers said during a radio appearance. \"I’ll go one step further. That they’ve even discussed a one-for-one deal, Kris Bryant for Nolan Arenado, where the Rockies pick up a good portion of Arenado’s salary over the length of the contract. I’m talking $7 or $8 million per year.
\"That’s how much they need to get rid of Arenado,\" Rogers added, \"and he wants out.\"
