MESA - Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts said on Monday the team is "waiting" on free agent Cody Bellinger and his agent, Scott Boras, to engage in contract negotiations. Though the sides have had "discussions," according to Ricketts, full-blown negotiations have yet to take place.

"I'm like everyone else," Ricketts said on report day for position players. "We're just waiting. Waiting for whenever he and his agent are going to engage. It could be any time now or it could be in a few weeks. We'll see where it goes.
