A lovely column on Jon Leseter from Sahadev Sharma.

It is extremely sad that Lester will probably not be able to say a final farewell to fans in Wrigley Field as he walks off the mound as a player.

Who knows, maybe after the Cubs fail to pick up his option, they'll come to some token deal that will enable him to pitch one more time before the fans in 2021 (assuming there are fans in 2021).

I hope something like this is worked out. Lester and the fans deserve it.
