Fowler hasn't sucked, imo, he's been one of the best Cubs this season. Doesn't mean we shouldn't look to ugrade though. Need more speed and a better OBP in the leadoff spot long term.

Less than two weeks ago, he was sitting at .357 OBP. As of right now he is mid .320's, which is still average for a leadoff hitter. The past few seasons he has been .360-.370 OBP.

He should be good for the Cubs through the season. And I believe the Cubs are planning on getting a compensatory pick when he signs elsewhere.

Same. Before his brutal 1-20 homestand he was slashing .258/.351/.429. That's a solid CFer.
