Xavier Nady To Sign With Cubs, Pending Physical

Via tweet from Yahoo's Tim Brown. More details when they are available.

I'm fine with this signing, presuming Nady has sufficiently recovered from the elbow surgery he had last year. Nady is 31 and had a fine year in 2008 split between the Pirates and Yankees.
