GTFO with this bullshit. ANY money spent to keep this rag arm , 5 plus ERA bullpen taxing guy around wouldve been too much . Get off his cock . He was paid more than fairly for his work here. Hanging on to players way past their prime is shit the Cubs did for years and he wants them to repeat that crap cuz he thinks it looks bad?

Easy there, sparkles.

And I agree.

If it was close, I could see his point, but it wasn't close so obviously they didn't want him.

Lester is done. He was done a couple years ago. I bet if you got a couple scotch and sodas in him he'd agree and say that any offer today is just taking money.
He had a great career. He has a lot of wonderful accomplishments. He should be goddamn proud.
But if he wants money, he should go somewhere else to get it cause we here in Chicago know that it's over.
Thanks, Lester, for coming here and being a difference maker in 2016. It couldn't have been done without you. Best wishes.

Best free agent signing in Cubs history but he is done. Good luck to him.

he's a great ass kisser and this is just another way to keep his relationship w/ lester alive. maybe down the road the cubs hire lester in a front office or tv analyst role.

Fuck Kaplan, too much UV esposure to that bald head. This reminds me of the Urlacher fan boys wanting him to get a golden parachute.

Agree. If he really wanted to retire as a Cub he could have done it now. He wants to glom somebody's money for below average work at an inflated price

Kap can’t help himself.

When the transition from Theo to Jed was just starting he was fine with gutting the roster.

He let GDub get in his head about how the Cubs should be the Yankees and never field a subpar product.

But the Cubs clearly gave Lester a number and said this is what we can do. Go field other offers and let us know. That’s what happened. He found more and took it. The end

Please tell me he isn't wearing a blu tooth ear piece with "hiking gear"

That part is true. But signing a washed up Jon Lester isn't the way to achieve it.

Now he's making the case for Deshaun Watson to come to the Bears.

Yeah, leave one disfunctional owner/GM for another.

I seem to remember them getting an MVP for 500K

He was able to exist in relative obscurity on WGN. They always encouraged unabashed pom pom waving for the Cubs, anyway. He's not at WGN any more.

Kaplan sucks

you are arguing team accomplishments

Every other free agent on that also won a world series. Are they all better free agent signings than Dawson?

I like his show with Hood. He can be a stroke but Hood calls him on it

NLCS MVP sure isn't a team accomplishment. If the Cubs wouldn't have won the World Series without those free agents then yes, 100x yes, every single one of them were better FA signings than Andre Dawson.
