I had planned a relatively quiet weekend away from baseball but my phone was blowing up all day Saturday and Sunday with private Twitter messages asking me if the Cubs were going to sign Craig Kimbrel after Brandon Morrow was shut down on Saturday.
Really, all I wanted to do was spend my weekend walking Milwaukee’s beautiful lakefront. Just wasn’t in the cards, I guess.
As far as Kimbrel, I wouldn’t count on anything happening. When Victor Caratini went down with his injury, the front office did nothing but promote Taylor Davis.
