Via ESPN. Would be a great move for them, coming from a Yankee fan I've seen first hand how good he is.

 

Being reported here in Chicago that its a done deal, but that they need to wait until after the World Series to make a formal announcement.

Peavy will be appropriately avoided with several dozen ten foot poles.

 

That said, the Cubs will be pursuing big name players. Lester will probably be a Cub, Shields has a shot, a trade for Hamels has a legit shot, hopefully some CF or even a C pops up to trade for...Sucks that FA kinda blows ths year, but the Cubs have the pieces to make significant trades or spend money without killing whatever else it is they're doing.

The love affair with this guy is unreal.  He would have been MVP if the Royals had won.
