Writing About the Chicago Cubs and Looking at the Team’s Past
[powered by WordPress.]
Jeff Passan profiles Cubs pitching prospect and football holdout Jeff Samardzija. Good stuff during the week when he would have been at the football combines.
I talked about the offer the Cubs made to Notre Dame standout Jeff Samardzija and now the two sport star has chosen to sign on with the Cubs. Samardzija will make a guaranteed $10 million over the life of the five year contract and he also has full no-trade clause. The team has a couple of options and if he’s the real deal, we should see Samardzija in a Cubs uniform through 2013.
It looks like the standout starter will make his debut at High A in 2007. I’ll be sure to follow his progress through out the season next year.
