Free agent signings Lester, Lackey, and Heyward, were a huge piece of the puzzle in the Cubs winning the World Series.

Zobrist is not #2. Nice player, good signing, but he was a 6 WAR player over 4 years for the Cubs.

Alfonso Soriano is probably right behind Lester. Ted Lilly is another good one.

That's just embarrassing.

Heretofore unmentioned Cubs great free agents...

Randy Meyers. 3 years at just over 3 mil per. Huge save percentage
Dave Kingman. 48 HR is '79.
Ted Lilly. Yeah, he was better than you remember.
Ryan Dempster. A reclamation project for half a mil. Not a bad run. If he'd just go away now.
Moises Alou. He was a very solid FA, 76 HR for the coob.

That's a good list for the 2nd Tier.

what else is he going to say? he kisses individual and collective ass. got humiliated by rizzo, but, he knows the territory. he goes back to experience new odors.

a few weeks ago i heard him lament that players only get paid from april until october. if it was 1949, i get it, ss john beradino needs to further explore his hollywood career. it's 2021 and what is the mlb minimum wage? what is baseball's median salary compared to the average american's median salary.
