A little late to this, but within the past week two former Cubs have found new homes and it marks the end of a frustrating, not always their fault, era for both players. David Bote, who signed a five-year extension in 2019 that was worth $15 million, has signed a minor league deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Meanwhile, right-handed hitting slugger Patrick Wisdom is headed to the KBO, where he’s agreed to a deal with the Kia Tigers.
Both of these guys had their moments and for Bote it was very easy to root for him.
