Jared Porter was a Cubs executive when he sent unsolicited lewd text messages to a reporter

Late last night as I was fuming about the Cubs‘ inability to sign Jon Lester to a one-year deal (something I’ll write about later this week) I started getting a steady stream of texts, DMs and messages about now former Mets General Manager Jared Porter. The irony of my texts filling up about a guy who, well, sent a bunch of unsolicited texts to a reporter was not lost on me, but what most people are reporting as a story about the Mets is really a story about the Cubs. And as uncomfortable as it is to start my workweek this way, I think it’s important that we talk about it.
