From Will Carroll on Twitter (h/t NYBD):
Cubs signing of Mike Cameron is waiting on deal of Milton Bradley, which has been “imminent” for about 72 hours.
The Milton Bradley deal referenced is one that would send the disgruntled outfielder to the Rays for the similarly unproductive Pat Burrell. This is a deal that has been discussed for weeks, and is apparently close to coming to fruition. Carroll is the only one that I have seen reporting the second domino in this equation, the signing of Cameron by the Cubs. Many of the writers here at TYU believe Cameron would be a nice addition to the 2010 Yankees, either as a replacement for Johnny Damon or in addition to Damon, so this comes as unwelcome news. Hopefully Carroll’s information is incorrect or one of the reported deals falls through.

I really just can’t see Cameron signing yet, not when he knows the Yankees are interested. But, if he is signing, he has to be getting at least a 2-year deal from Chicago, which wasn’t really guaranteed with the Yankees or anyone else. Chris H.(Quote)

If I was him even the 2 years wouldn’t make me sign with the Cubs, they don’t have a real chance to win the WS next year and the Yankees just won one. The other Chris H(Quote)
