Gathright going to Cubs

While Padres pitcher Jake Peavy remains trade bait, the Cubs added an outfielder. Former Biscuit Joey Gathright has signed a one-year, $800,000 deal with Chicago.

Cubs fans aren't quite jumping for joy. A comment at the Chicago Tribune from "Bob hates Cubbies" ...

World Series in sight now because of Gathright. Too bad there aren't cars to jump over around the bases. Joey Gathright is a proven veteran who could lead them to the promise land, and help win a world series!!!!!!

Great pickup, I think my great uncle is still availible for signing too...
