Do the Cubs need Dexter Fowler?

Earlier this week, we read that both Chicago teams are interested in Dexter Fowler.  It was also reported by Bruce Levine that he is "most likely" going to end up on the Cubs. Cub fans want to see Fowler back in a Cubs uniform, but the only issue with that brings is do the Cubs really need Dexter Fowler?

In 2015, Fowler hit .250 in 156 games (the most he has ever played in a season). He had career highs in many stats, including home runs (17). 

After Fowler denied $15.8 million dollars from the Cubs back in November, the Cubs began a search for an outfielder. Low and behold, they got extremely lucky. Jason Heyward decided to sign with the Cubs under a monster contract. It filled the Cubs' outfield vacancy.

Now, sitting in late January, Fowler still has yet to sign with a team. With no need for Fowler, many MLB sources are saying that the Cubs are most likely to sign Fowler. If they do, Fowler will only work in a back-up role and he will play in singnificantly less game than he did last season. 

If you asked me, I want Fowler back and I don't want Fowler back. I respect him as a ball player, I also think he can do better than a back-up role. Again, if they do sign him, it will take a long time for Fowler to get used to not playing on a day to day basis, but I'm sure he'd love the World Series ring, wouldn't we all?
