The Chicago Cubs granted free agency to former 2007 first round draft pick (3rd overall) Josh Vitters. Vitters is yet another casualty of the woeful Jim Hendry regime. Vitters' final numbers as a Cub were BA .121 2 HR 5 RBI.

Cubs Sign Reliever Jason Motte To One Year Deal!
The Chicago Cubs have signed former St. Louis Cardinals' closer to a one year 4.5 M contract for the 2015 season. Motte has been sidelined with injuries of late but could be an excellent signing for the Cubs if he remains healthy.

Brett Jackson Just One More Jim Hendry Draft Casulaty
If case you didn't hear former Cubs' 2009 first round draft pick Brett Jackson was quietly shipped to Arizona this summer for a minor league pitcher. Jackson now joins the ranks for Mark Pawelek, Hayden Simpson, Ryan Harvey, Vosh Vitters with the rest of former GM Jim Hendry's first round busts. Let's hope Javier Baez doesn't join them!
Renteria Gets Raw Deal From Cubs
I certainly had a few problems with former Cub manager Rick Renteria early in the 2014 season but in the end I would say he did a pretty reasonable job, especially after all the trading activity. Renteria did nothing at all to warrant being fired. I think it was a real disgrace the way he was treated by Cub management and I hope he surfaces with another team.
