Chicago Tribune (http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/chi-10-winter-rumorsdec10,0,2321698.story).
ESPN is also reporting on the matter. Two-year deal with a vesting option for a third.

Great move. The Indians were good with a shaky closer the last two years. Not good for us rivals...

Yeah, but isn't he an upgrade from Borowski? Doesn't his chances of arm trouble plummet coming out of the pen at 70 innings a year? Seems to me that it was a need that was well addressed.

I'll let you know about 70 innings, he hasn't done that for the last four years straight

Keep in mind he had one trip to the DL last season.
For a blister.
