Ian Happ appears poised to enter the 2023 season on the final year of his contract with the Chicago Cubs.

Happ said Wednesday he had "nothing really to report" and "no real comment on it." He said he is not breaking off talks on an extension, but added: "That also doesn't mean anything."

The outfielder will be a free agent after the season.

Happ hit .271/.342/.440 in 573 at-bats in 2022.
