Scott Hairston to the Cubs on a 2-year deal.

The Mets are petitioning MLB to protect the 11th pick in the draft. The top 10 picks are normally protected. The Mets' argument is that they would have had the 10th pick except baseball awarded the Pirates with a bonus top 10 pick because they didn't sign Mark Appel last year.

I doubt it works. But if baseball allows them to protect the pick...they may actually sign Bourn. If not, with Hairston off the board they're looking out an outfield of Lucas Duda, Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Mike Baxter, Colin Cowgill, and Andrew Brown. Hello 90 losses.
