John Dennis of WEEI just reported that Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein has
agreed with the Cubs on a five-year deal worth more than $15 million.
This is a huge moment for the Cubs. Franchise-altering.
The deal is expected to be finalized by the end of this week.
The Cubs and Red Sox still have to talk about compensation for letting
Epstein go when he still had a year on his deal. As was reported last night,
however, compensation is not expected to be in the form of a top major league
player. Most likely it’s a minor leaguer.
