Morrissey Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Jon Lester, Cubs agree on six-year, $155M deal, sources tell Yahoo Sports. Red Sox are runners-up. Their final bid: six for $135M. — Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) December 10, 2014 The San Francisco Giants were willing to go seven years, somewhere in the neighborhood of $168 million for Jon Lester. He took less money. — Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) December 10, 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 But, but, but he was supposed to give a hometown discount to the holy Red Sox! What happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFSIKH Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 All things being equal, the Cubs can have him for that price. While the Sox clearly need him, he is not the last piece in a championship puzzle for the Sox or Cubs for that matter. He would be the difference in 4th place instead of 5th as the Sox stand now.
