Chicago Cubs Partner With DraftKings and Plan for Wrigley Field Sportsbook

The Chicago Cubs have announced a multi-year agreement with DraftKings, which will make the sportsbook app their official sports betting and daily fantasy partner. The deal also includes a plan to make Wrigley Field the first MLB stadium with an on site sportsbook, which will also feature additional online access in the neighborhood surrounding the stadium.

DraftKings has not yet announced a timeline for when the sportsbook will open as they are pending approval from the city of Chicago, though sports betting has been legal in Illinois since 2019. The deal comes a day after DraftKings also announced a partnership with Chicago Bulls legend  Michael Jordan .
