re: Cubs sign Jon Jay for 1 year 8 million

Sorry, he's not a good fit with an NL team configured like the Cubs. He needs to go to the AL where he can rotate between catcher, first, and DH. Better for the player and better for the Cubs

Meh

His bat cancels out all of his so called deficiencies

If for some reason they do decide to trade him, I'm ok with it, because a huge haul is coming back. Only way they sell him. Wouldn't be against adding a Sale or Archer along with some pen help

As for Jay, he's a perfect platoon guy w almora. With that obp, maddon will bat him at the top. He has two jobs - get on base and cover CF adequately
