Looks like both the Chicago Cubs AND Derrek Lee have reason to smile today.  The Cubs are getting a guaranteed five-year contract with a no-trade clause for a reigning National League Batting Champion, D. Lee is getting a reported $65 Million.  Yep, they’re smiling.

This new contract replaces his old one and carries all the way through the 2010 season, ensuring that the 2 time Gold Glove winner will be at home in Chi-Town til at least 2010.  Wow.

“I like it here…I want to be on that team that wins a world championship here in Chicago and sees the city go crazy,” he said.
