Robert Murray of The Score reports that the Cubs and Jon Lester haven't made any progress toward a new deal.
The Cubs understandably declined Lester's $25 million club option following the season, though he has told the club that he wants to return. It's unclear if the club will consider him a priority with them moving in a new direction. Lester, 36, posted a rough 5.16 ERA and 42/17 K/BB ratio in 61 innings over 12 starts this past season. The Giants were mentioned as a possible alternative at one point. Dec 29 11:01 am (EST)
