Dexter Fowler

He will go down as one of the great heroes in Chicago sports history. Dexter Fowler was the do-it-all center fielder for the 2016 World Series champion Cubs. His superb defense and ability as a lead-off batter were absolutely critical to their iconic run to the curse-breaking title. Sadly the business of baseball took Fowler elsewhere, but his place is already secure in Windy City lore. So what does he have to do at all with Deshaun Watson?

They were born in the same town. Each came into the world out of Gainesville, Georgia. Perhaps that city could be the gift that keeps on giving for Chicago.
