Do Cubs lift Dempster after 5 innings today?

Keep him fresh.

Keep him free from injury.

Keep his value high with a strong start today.

Cubs are out of it.

Thoughts?

My thoughts are that Dempster told the Cubs he would only go to LA... so LA is low balling the Cubs so there is actually a decent chance the Cubs keep him and make him a 1 year offer and take the draft pick if he bolts.

Nevermind. Pirates just scored. Tie game. Cubs will leave him in there.
