Al Yellon created Bleed Cubbie Blue and has been its managing editor since 2005. He's also written three books about the Cubs, the latest is "Chicago Cubs Firsts."
As we learned late Monday, the Cubs will not be the MLB landing spot for NPB star Roki Sasaki. He has narrowed his choices to three teams: Dodgers, Padres and Blue Jays.
I think I’m not alone when I say I hope it’s either of the two teams besides the Dodgers. In fact, if he did choose the Jays, that would be somewhat refreshing, a club that doesn’t often get a big splash like this.
