Looks like the Cubbies have a little something to cheer about. Carlos Pena will be a northsider next season.

The deal is for $10 million, according to a source.

Pena had a star-crossed season in 2010, hitting 28 home runs with 84 RBIs but hitting a career-low .196 and striking out 158 times in 484 at-bats.

He should keep a nice breeze blowing out towards right-center, occasionally there will be a baseball in front of it.

What kind of world are we in where yo can't bat your weight and still make 10 million a year?

I hear Fergie Jenkins is interested in a comeback.
