LESTER TO CUBS & I GOT SOME REST

I couldn't wait any longer for Lester to announce it last night... I had to go to bed.  I tried to make it a game. I tried to engage the BYB audience just enough so maybe it would pass the time... it didn't work.

I've never had beef with Lester... until now. You selfish SOB, I NEED TO GO TO BED! #BYB

Lester is on the verge of signing... with the Tennessee Balloons! WHOA! I didn't see that one coming! #BYB

Actual Conversation Now: Lester: "OK, how do i use my twitter to tell people where I'm signing? Um... no. I don't know my password."

After a while, I wrote this:

Me right now: :You know what? You're not that important Jon Lester. I'm going to bed. (Drops mic... and goes to brush teeth.) #BYB

My mind was made up. I was hitting the sack.  Luckily for me, a regular guy, I can afford to do that.  The "baseball insiders" had it. 

The decision was made while I was in my slumber.  Jon Lester is a Chicago Cub...6 years, $155 million.

And the American League rejoices.
