It's a bad deal.
Cubs mortgaged their future.
And they'd arguably be even better with almost anyone NOT named Jason Heyward right now.
how did they do that
Ya'll seen Jason Heyward new contract with the Cubs?
- Thread starter Justise M
- Start date

Heyward had an injured wrist too he has started slow and I think joe maddon needs to drop him in the line up,cubs beasting so far without schwarber and heyward not hitting 
When they're saddled with a 700 OPS player earning 28M they can't move in 2 years, you'll see.

Why would they need to move him?
In 2 years the cubs will be getting a new tv contract like the yankees and dodgers so they'll spend even more and all the young cubs players schwarber,russell,bryant,baez will be 1st time arbitration eligible in 2018/2019

This is gonna make it sweeter when the cubs fail for the 108th consecutive year 
I thought people were joking when they talked about Heyward getting a monster contract last year. Then it happened. Absolutely nothing in his playing career suggested he'd ever be worth this kind of money.
The Cubs have so many studs on cheap deals it won't hurt them that much, but this will go down as one of the worst deals in MLB history and exhibit A as why you cannot strictly use analytics to judge a player.

No..Money..Mo..Problems
it is what it is
This, the cubs knew they over paid but with so many young players on cheap deals they won't have a problem till the last 2-3 years of it. They pretty much paying him 28 mill a year in the hopes that he makes a couple of great defensive plays in the playoffs that might be the difference in breaking the curse. But Joe gotta drop him in the lineup to 7th or 8th.
Stevie Wonder could see you that shyt was terrible36 games in and while the Cubs are winning, Jason Heyward is batting .225/.325/.282 with just one home run
Still 120 something games to go
But I told you.
