He's going to be miserable there. During the press conference he cracked a joke about not answering the GM's phone call or some shit like that and the Cardinals GM didn't find it funny one bit. It was a really awkward moment.

Bullshit. Everyone wants to play for the classiest fan base™ in all of sports

You guys really need some new material.

Do the Cubs get draft pick compensation as a result of the Fowler signing? I think they do.

Cardinals lose what nominally would be the 18th pick (every time someone below them signs a compensation pick FA, everyone slides down a slot) and the Cub get a sandwich pick between round 1 and 2.

how interesting he's gone back to play for Maddon.

Sounds like it was Theo who was behind not having a legit lead off man post 2016.

Dex had the opportunity at a large free agency contract that he likely knew the cubs wouldnt offer after the one year deal they signed him for to bring him back in 2016.

That is the business.

Cubs let him walk at the perfect time, we squeezed everything out of him and he underperformed in STL.

Reader's thoughts about Rizzo being a "grandstanding pos" did not age well after Rizzo was named the 2017 Roberto Clemente Award winner.
