It’s been rumored for days, but Jim Edmonds’ signing with the Cubs is seemingly imminent upon passing a physical, according to ESPN.
Despite it being the Cubs, I will root for Jimmy to do well (as long as they aren’t playing the Cardinals). He’s just one of those former ‘Birds who holds a special place in my heart. He always goes/went out with the reckless abandonment of a Little Leaguer trying to impress his dad, something I’ve always admired in Jim.
Injuries have slowed the center fielder, but he fits a need for the Cubs. Here’s hoping he can finish out in class and style.
