Chicago Cubs express interest in veteran outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury

The Cubs Convention concluded over the weekend and fans got a little bit of everything. From Tom Ricketts being booed over the Marquee Network, to Jed Hoyer and Theo Epstein shedding more uncertainty on the rest of this offseason, to David Ross reminding everyone how special this group is, it was an eventful time. One of the rumors that came to be over the weekend is that of long-time Red Sox and Yankee, Jacoby Ellsbury.

Ellsbury, at 36 years old, has not played since the 2017 season due to injuries. In 2013, he signed a monstrous seven-year, $153 million contract with the Yankees and it’s safe to say it hasn’t paid off.
