Alyson Footer, national correspondent for MLB.com:
Deshaies' Cubs deal is for four years. Astros counter-offered. Source said counter-offer was very fair for market value.

#WhyNot?
People ask me, "Why here? Why Kentucky?", I said "Why not"? It can be done here. It will be done here. Lay the foundation. Recruit and develop. Prepare to win. Day by day. Play by play. A new era of high performance. Why Kentucky? Why not? -Mark Stoops

This year, I might even lose that excitement by May

Havent heard his voice and I was hoping D-Ro got it, but if this guy is good then good replacement.

Honestly, I'm going to miss BB. He and Len were so good together.
But I'm willing to give Deshaies a chance. Heard good things about him. I'm so ready for spring training to begin!
