Rumor has it that Chicago Cubs superstar Kris Bryant had the opportunity to become at least $200 million richer.
The same rumor also has it that he said "nah."
This is according to Chicago radio host David Kaplan during a Wednesday segment on ESPN 1000. As summarized by Brett Taylor of Bleacher Nation, the Cubs reportedly approached Bryant and agent Scott Boras about a "'massive extension' worth 'well north of $200 million'" in the last several months. They reportedly turned it down.
Although MLB.com's Daniel Kramer confirmed Kaplan's report, neither the agent nor the club has commented.
