When Craig Kimbrel's rented Lakeview mansion, once a prized possession of three Cubs pitchers, went up for $2,300,000

A few years ago, a Lakeview home was rented in succession by pitchers Wade Davis, Brandon Morrow and Craig Kimbrel, back when they played for the Chicago Cubs. The beautiful home, situated about a mile from Wrigley Stadium, is reported to have cost them between $12,000 and $15,000 a month.

The property was listed for $2.6 million in 2016,. After the three pitchers left and some upgrades, the home was listed for $2.3 million in 2021. The majestic 5,000-square-foot property was sold in December 2021 and is estimated to be worth its original listing of $2.6 million today.

Wade Davis lived there during his year in Chicago in 2017, Brandon Morrow in 2018 and Craig Kimbrel from 2019-2021. Here are some photos from the 2021 listing of the 5-bed, 4.5-bath, Chicago property that the three pitchers all once called home.

As you can see, the design is elegant, simplistic and wholesome, perhaps just the ticket for a Cubs pitcher after a noisy game at Wrigley Field. The property also has unobstructed views of Chicago's skyline via its 700-square-foot fourth-floor terrace.

As baseball is a dynamic, ever-shifting world, none of these pitchers call the Cubs home anymore, although Kimbrel is still in the MLB and now with the Baltimore Orioles. Kimbrel recently signed a one-year, $13 million deal with Baltimore that includes an option for 2025.

As for Wade Davis and Brandon Morrow, they have both retired from the MLB.
