Reports that the Cubs "are in the process of working out a player development agreement with the Kane County Cougars in an effort to move their Midwest League affiliate from Peoria would be against Major League Baseball policy, according to a Kansas City Royals executive. A violation of the rule would result in a $500,000 fine for major league teams and a $100,000 fine for minor league teams.
