[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1449882, member: 26283"] The Cubs don’t have any self-imposed restrictions about the luxury tax. They wouldn’t have picked up Hamels’ option if that were the case. They’re already over the tax this year. They have $60M coming off the books after this season (assuming they don’t pick up Morrow’s option, but do pick up Rizzo’s and Quintana’s). They have even more than that coming off the books after 2020. They could sign Harper and then be back under the tax for the 2020 season if that’s what they wanted to do. [/QUOTE]
