Cubs sign Jon Lieber for 1-yr, 3.5 million

Squirrel and I had a 'Clash of the Titans' regarding the Maddux acquisition, but didn't discuss the Trachsel pick-up too much. I'll be interested as to what he has to say about our old friend Jon Lieber. I personally think that for this price, it's a great move. Especially if it means the departure of Jason Marquis and/or Ryan Dempster.
