The Jon Lester #SmearCampaign on Twitter is hilarious
The Cubs won the Jon Lester sweepstakes with a six-year, $155 million deal.
But they may not realize that Lester comes with a lot of “baggage.”
At least, that’s the fun that people were having on Twitter on Wednesday as the hashtag #SmearCampaign was trending. Here are some of the best tweets:
