NASHVILLE – Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer pushed back on a report Tuesday that the Cubs were no longer in the race for Shohei Ohtani.
“I don’t know where that came from,” Hoyer said. “There’s nothing to report whatsoever.
“On all the Ohtani stuff, just like I would any free agent, I’m not going to talk about discussions or meetings or where it is. I’d keep that quiet, like anything else.”
Hoyer did say that the Cubs have not been given a “status check” from the Ohtani camp.
