Speedy center-fielder (and car-jumper, as seen on YouTube) Joey Gathright, formerly of Lou Piniella's Devil Rays, has rejoined his former manager in a one-year, $800K deal. Gathright essentially offers what the Cubs need out of Felix Pie's roster spot in 2009.
The Cubs are still shopping for left-handed pop for the outfield, and with Pie out of options they'll lose him unless he stays on the roster all season with veterans Alfonso Soriano, Kosuke Fukudome, Reed Johnson, Mark DeRosa, Gathright and Outfield Candidate 6 ahead of him in line for playing time.
