Former Chicago Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta, signed with the Phillies Sunday, posted a photo of a handwritten farewell letter to Chicago on Twitter Monday.

Read the full letter below:

"In the midst of what felt like never ending adversity and failure, I was traded to the Chicago Cubs on July 2, 2013. This was the beginning of a four and a half year stretch that would forever change our lives. On the verge of walking away from the game I love dearly, Theo called, and the transformation began. I looked myself in the mirror, as well as my two year old son and pregnant wife knowing in my heart that everything was about to change.

"Chicago was our home, and will forever be a special place for my entire family. We raised our children in Wrigleyville, one of the most iconic places in all of sports. Going to work every day was an honor for many reasons from the storied history of the organization, to the high character individuals I was surrounded by year after year. Three consecutive NLCS appearances, two NL Central Titles, and a World Series Championship… the first in 108 years. Childhood dreams turned reality, thanks to so many amazing people, all holding one another to a very high standard.

"I send gracious thanks to the Ricketts family and front office for their commitment to winning at any cost. Going the extra mile to take care of our families was never taken for granted. I was lucky to have dedicated teammates that willingly shed blood, sweat, and tears to achieve our goals. I will miss going to battle with all of you, but look forward to competing on opposite sides moving forward. Lastly, thanks to all Cubs fans around the world for standing with us, and investing in us even when times were tough. You will all be missed dearly. Thanks for the memories.

-49"

The Cubs posted their own heartfelt message ealrier Monday thanking Arrieta and his wife Brittany.

Pregnant Nurse Saves Heart Attack Victim at Del. Parade

Karlee McGinnis didn’t expect to save a life during her day off at the parade, but former Delaware Judge Don Callendar was glad she was around.

McGinnis was with her family watching the Saint Patrick’s Day parade in Willmington, Delaware, Saturday when Callendar, who was marching in the parade, suddenly collapsed.

“The parade just barely started, so it happened really fast,” McGinnis said. “My sister tapped me on the shoulder saying, ‘Karlee I think you need to go help.'”

When McGinnis reached Callendar, she immediately knew something was wrong and had to act fast.

“He was completely grey,” she said. “And then someone checked his pulse and there was nothing, so I immediately started performing CPR.”

Callendar was having a heart attack at the time and was dead for three rounds of CPR. Another nurse, Lew Smiley, helped McGinnis perform CPR until more help arrived.

“It was kinda like auto pilot. I just jumped right in,” McGinnis said.

She performed chest compressions on Callendar while also being six months pregnant.

After about a minute, color returned to Callendar and he gasped for air. He was taken to St. Francis Hospital. He reportedly asked for McGinnis’ phone number to personally thank her for saving his life.

“It’s probably one of the most moving things happen to me in my life,” he said. “Karlee’s memory is in my chest because she really pushed hard.”

2 Suspects Face Charges in Montgomery Co. Burglary String

Two Philadelphia men are in custody on high bail for allegedly burglarizing houses in at least two Montgomery County towns, according to authorities.

Anthony McDaniels and Leroy Boose are currently charged with three burglaries in Abington and another burglary in Lower Merion, according to court records. But a spokeswoman for the Montgomery County District Attorney's office said a court hearing for McDaniels Tuesday in the case was just "an initial step."

"We expect to be filing additional charges as this is still an active investigation," the spokeswoman said in an email.

The two suspects were allegedly caught red-handed Feb. 10 by a special burglary prevention task force in Lower Merion, according to court records.

It remains unclear exactly how widespread the charges will eventually become, but authorities with knowledge of the investigation said the case involves alleged burglaries in Lower Merion, Abington and Cheltenham as well as incidents outside of Montgomery County as far as New Jersey.

Art works, including statues, and jewelry, have allegedly already been recovered through the expanding investigation, with law enforcement describing a "massive amount" of stolen property found already.

The assistant district attorney on the case declined to comment Tuesday. It is unclear if McDaniels and Boose have attorneys. They are both being held on $1 million bail on the four burglary counts and numerous related charges.
