I'm going to go out on a limb and say it now. Jon Lester will be a Cub this offseason.
Id also like to see us sign a veteran position player. Theres not many open spots available.
The one spot that we could upgrade in the short term offensively is catcher.
I'd really like to see us make a run at Russell Martin. He would provide offense from behind the dish, mentor Welly, and be that veteran with postseason experience that can be invaluable to a young talented team on the rise.
The more I think about the more perfect it sounds. Get on it Theo.
Next year, we'll be at least a wild card, and the beginning of the dynasty.

Not trying to be smug, and sorry if it comes off that way, but i don't think that's much of a limb. And I expect the cubs will get one of the 'lesser' FA pitching options too.

Ok, but so long as we keep john baker, that guy is hysterical.

Anyone know the story with Yasmani Tomas, ie when he'll be available, is he major league ready, and if not how much development?
