Is DeJesus under contract for next year?

Well guess it means they trust lake to play center for the rest of the year, and unless they overpay for ellsbury in the off season, next year too.

But my bigger question is who is the clubhouse/positive influence for everyone now

also I'll miss Kim DeJesus. Probably the worst part of all of this.

Through a club option, yes. 6.5 million

Castro obviously....Seriously though, Schierholtz is a vet, but how long will he be around?

Yeah I saw that. With a $1.5 million buyout. Saves Cubs a lot of money.

Expensive 4th outfielder for Washington, even though he might be an upgrade over Span

She's stunning to say the least.

My best guess too, but the little i hear about nate is that he's fairly steady as she goes, which isn't a bad thing, but not the arm around your shoulder pick a teamate up type that dejesus was.

Maybe we can bring zambrano back as a clubhouse guy. THis team needs more fight.

I liked DeJesus. He was a solid player for the Cubs and one they really liked in the clubhouse and on the field. They were going nowhere, so why not get something for him if someone wants to take him?

Still following Kim on Twitter, though.

Don't get this at all for the Nats.

Maybe they're going to trade Span in the offseason and go with a straight Hairston/DeJesus platoon in LF next year?

It's a pretty good platoon but expensive.

Isn't he in jail for beating his wife?

He really is the epitome of the disconnect that was the Hendry front office.

We need a power left handed hitter...oooh i know, lets go get a switch hitting lunatic...and put him in right field...where no one has cut anyone some slack since sammy, i'm sure our drunk fans won't offend his delicate psyche.

Ugh, now my blood is boiling...i hate milton bradley.

I doubt they bring him back next year. Pay the one million left for this year, buy him out at 1.5 next year. Just my guess though.
