CHICAGO -- The last time catcher Chris Gimenez talked to free-agent pitcher Yu Darvish, the two playfully imagined being teammates on the Cubs.
"He was joking with me the other day about it," Gimenez said. "I said, 'I'll call Theo right now. What do you want me to tell him?' [Darvish] said, 'More years and more money.' I started laughing and said, 'All right, Bryce Harper.'"
Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein most likely knows what Darvish wants -- and will find out Harper's demands next offseason when he becomes a free agent.
