With Tapani, Mulholland Unavailable, Cubs Look to Lieber

Lou Piniella, Rich Hill’s dad, and Mike Fontenot clown around.Okay, come on. There have been rumors floating around for a while that the Cubs were interested in Jon Lieber, but I thought nothing would come of them. It looks like something actually might come of them. While normally I would be in favor of any move that decreases Ryan Dempster’s chance of starting a game for the Cubs in 2008, if Jim Hendry pays more than peanuts for Lieber, he’s just being silly.

UPDATE: And done. One-year deal. Don’t know the amount yet. Thanks to A Fan for the link.
