It won't matter who the manager is? Theo is a computer geek and all the moves will be generated by the computer.
Theo and his geek squad will call the shots all the manager has to do is turn in the lineup that they tell him to.

Can't be any worse than what they have been doing lately.

It got the BoSox two rings as well.

Not the dreaded Cardinals!!

Article also states no Cubbies for Ryno,

Looks like Francona is coming to the NL Central (I thought he might go to STL, but now with the firing of Quade, he's open to hook back up with Epstein)?

I was hoping they would give Ryno a chance, but I think Epstein will hire a competent manager.

As in his "boy" Francona? This smells more and more like a set-up to me. Francona leaves first "via mutual agreement", then Epstein leaves the next week. Then Quade gets canned after only one year of experience with a bad team who has too many back-loaded contracts, bad attitudes, washed-up never was players, and only a handful of future stars/legitimate stars.

icehog3 · 11-07-2011, 03:10 PM

Francona is not one of the two front runners from what the Chicago media is reporting.

Starscream · 11-17-2011, 03:28 PM

Looks like you guys got a new manager today.

Another superstar looking to put his career in the dumper?

Starscream · 12-01-2011, 04:00 PM

I'll be surprised if he actually signs with them.

criracer · 01-05-2012, 05:12 AM

Carlos Zambrano is no longer a Cub!

Something that should have been done a long time ago.

icehog3 · 01-05-2012, 10:06 AM

Can you say "rebuilding phase"? Cubs ain't gonna see the playoffs again anytime soon.

Sounds like a plan. I usually can make 6 games a season. We usually tailgate too, or hit up Cork and Kerrys before/after games.

Let's pick a night to hit a Sox - Tigers game as the season begins.

Tigers are also playing a 3 game series at Wrigley in June.
