Dexter Fowler is Gone

The first African-American to ever play for the Cubs in the World Series is gone. He's going to the arch rival St. Louis Cardinals, and he's getting big bucks...

Can confirm he's headed in now for physical. Description of deal remains big, to get him. Was seeking $18m, #cardinals go beyond their plan https://t.co/9Gm4jo33V1

Last year, the Cubs took Heyward and Lackey from the Cardinals.

This year, Dexter Fowler goes the other way.
