Cubs release Doubront

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Bullpen picture gets a little clearer, and that saves us a bit of money I think. Wasn't he on one of those not-completely-guaranteed arbitration-type deals?

@CSNMooney #Cubs give Felix Doubront his unconditional release (and owe him about $473,000, or 45 days worth of $1.925 million salary).

I'm a little disappointed. I thought there was more there with him than any of the other scrapheap lefties, a few of which we will be employing.

I think his experience in Boston made it reasonably clear he'd be a malcontent if he's a reliever.

So that leaves us with Coke and Britton as loogy options? I can't say I'm thrilled about that.

Probably. *Maybe* replace Britton with Ortiz or Rosscup.

 

Left-handed relief was probably the most obvious unfilled hole of the offseason.

wow...I hadn't looked at his l/r splits before. Limited sample size, but yeah.

I really hope he's the 5th starter when he's healthy.

I really hope CJ is healthy and dominating and becomes the fifth starter in about June.

Unless something came out today, last I heard they were still not sure if he was going to Iowa or Tennessee.

Blue Jays signed LHP Felix Doubront to a minor league contract; assigned him to Triple-A Buffalo.
