After Cody Bellinger's impressive season with the New York Yankees, a reunion with the Chicago Cubs could be the team's answer in replacing the outgoing Kyle Tucker in the middle of the lineup.

It's all but guaranteed that Tucker will depart for a new team in free agency, leaving the Cubs with a massive hole in the lineup and power department. Bellinger could solve many of the team's needs if they are willing to meet his contract, which is projected to be somewhere between $150-200 million this offseason.
