Cubs Interested in Jermaine Dye?

I've always been a fan of Jermaine Dye and thought the Cubs should have signed him before the 2005 season instead of Jeromy Burnitz, but Jim Hendry was hell-bent on getting a lefthanded bat instead of the best bat available. It would be fitting now for the Cubs to go out and get Dye when he is having his worst season and his health limits how much he can play the field, but the Chicago Sun-Times and the Daily Herald both speculate the Cubs have interest in Dye, and even quote Jim Hendry on what a good relationship he has with Kenny Williams. Dye wouldn't be much of an upgrade with the Cubs if he continues playing at his current level. He's hitting .229 with 16 hr and 47 rbi this season. He hasn't even gotten hot lately, hitting only .229 in July. And despite what Phil Roger's says, Dye has not been hot lately. He's hitting .238 in his last 7 games played.

I guess Dye could "platoon" with Cliff Floyd in rightfield. Each could play 3 innings, leave the game with their daily injury, then Angel Pagan could play the last 3 innings.
