Ken Rosenthal Reports Jon Lester Has Narrowed It Down To Cubs And Giants

Jon, lets talk for a second here. San Francisco? Come on. They’ve already won 3 World Series, their fans are spoiled, if you go there you’ll just be another cog in their win every 2 years plan. But Chicago? Jon, if you come to Chicago and win a World Series you’ll basically be Jesus. The 85 Bears won a Super Bowl almost 30 years ago and they still own this city. Don’t be silly Jon, do the right thing. This isn’t even a tough decision, you know it and I know it, now let the whole world know it.

2015 Chicago Cubs Starting Rotation (h/t mo)

1. Jon Lester

2. Jake Arrieta

3. Max Scherzer
