Yeah it's clear they're tired. We're tired. Just sign, damnit.

Jesse Rogers @ESPNChiCubs 10s11 seconds ago I'm here. The guess in media room is it happens tonight now that he called SF RT @MichaelBro: @ESPNChiCubs This is me checking your pulse.
-
I've wondered that too. It seems he's in Atlanta. I'm hoping he doesn't decide to sleep on it. I thought so too, but Cotillo said that Demp and Varitek are in SD to help recruit Lester. Which makes it sound like he's in SD right now. Maybe they are just hanging out in their clubs warroom, conf call style Maybe. But you think they could probably have done that from anywhere, right? Conference call style?

Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 27s27 seconds ago #Cubs have yet to be told either way if they are winner or out on Lester. That suggests Lester still mulling late in process #Redsox

What is the purpose of this tweet? Arrrghhhhhhh I can't take it. My dog's name is Elwood. I like to think he's making this post and is apart of this forum. I took it as the industry momentum seems to be in our favor. And I like that. I [expletive] in the laundry room. My bad. What is creepier is that I am in Lex, too.
-
Serious question...anyone know if Lester is in Atlanta right now or in SD? If he's in ATL this might not break tonight. If he's in SD we've got plenty of time.

Chris Cotillo @ChrisCotillo 41s41 seconds ago Industry expectation all day has been #Cubs for Lester. But you can't count out those #RedSox, who are reportedly still in the running.
-
I like Dan. He's crazypants.
-
Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 2m2 minutes ago Lester did not explain decision to #sfgiants execs, just thanked them for their interest
-
“@AlexPavlovic:Giants made multiple offers. Lester called half hour ago with news. Evans: "We did not receive a rose."” @waynetrain824 I don't see why you eliminate one without eliminating another tonight. No reason to just narrow from 3 to 2.
-
Could this be Lester beginning to inform teams?
-
I don't always make sure my players don't get poached from other MLB teams, but when I do, I make sure it's someone who's already gainfully employed in another profession making way more than he'd probably make in my profession and likely won't ever play a single inning professionally for my franchise...but hey...MEDIA EXPOSURE! Good job, Texas.
-
Wittenmeyer is an idiot. He's like...Tom Loxas. But employed.
-
[expletive] it. Give him the contract instead of Lester.
-
In nocode we trust! Might as well! He's more fun. Wittenmeyer and the Red Sox guys bum me out.
-
Gordon Wittenmeyer reports he's leaning Giants. But he's been so far from the truth this offseason that I dismiss him quickly.
-
That's a good point. He could have played this card previously. He waited. A bunch of times. Hell, last week it was reported around Tuesday that he'd sign before the week was over. No card played. He played well. Either he's a wonderful gambler or he's real. Either way, I agree with all...good game, NoCode. Good game.
-
May make sense. Marlin Bystro (are ya'll familiar with him?) had posted that we wanted Lester+Shields. So I could see us making a play for them. That said, I don't think Philadelphia is going to be in "rational" mode once Lester signs. If anything, they should continue to hold out, because no matter the answer to the question of "where will Lester go?", teams are going to want Hamels. Bad.

http://i.imgur.com/kjccmwH.gif So if the Cubs aren't shopping Welly, where exactly does Ross fit? Do you burn a roster spot on a third catcher just to appease Lester? And Ross isn't signing for the minimum, either. Likely? They're only shopping him if they get Lester. So they can't really say it yet. I bet they are.
-
Yeah. I'm impressed. It's been a good time since I've been taken this hard by an internet source.
-
Not to completely eat every word NoCode is selling, but his timeline seems spot on. It's now just getting to major media that it's decision time. Would make sense that his family would know first. He beat Cafardo here, so it wasn't reactionary. It could also just be an educated guess that it would happen tonight. But he's not losing any ground. I like the cut of your jib. Careful 1908 he's being fresh with you And to think I thought this was just a Cubs forum...it doubles as a dating forum? Hell yeah.

!!!!!! (Forgive me. This whole answer in the form of a GIF thing is new to me. Punctuation will be my current form of gif-ness).

Welcome to the forum! ;) Like I'm going to stay away from the home of the NoCode guy. This is just too good to keep away from!
