Who said the Cubs wanted Ryno? Theo? Jed? Nope. So, they are dumb because they didn't get a manager they didn't want anyways? They could have had him before for peanuts and DIDN'T offer him the job....


Again it was a joke, kind of like the Cubs organization.

A coach in baseball is more there to be just that, a manager. Managing each and every player and how they react to different situations. Also how to treat each individual player to make sure they get the most out of that player. If I had a player that needed to be praised over and over again. I would do that if that made him a better player. What is there not to get? It is obvious Dale could not get the most out of Starlin Castro, but he will come back strong if the right person is hired and can get through to some of these primadonnas.

Sadly, for quite some time I believe they were a joke (I hate to say it, but facts are facts). I am currently very happy with the direction the club and organization is taking. Hopefully I am not totally off base....

I like that Theo has dropped all of the dead weight. I just hope he doesn't put all of his stock in the farm system. Their payroll is low enough to where they can afford to sign some better free agents now.

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the Marmol issue was the team was trying to showcase him so that could dump him on another unsuspecting team. This kind of direction usually comes from upstairs but Marmol kept spitting the bit and the "showcase" backfired. I do not think that this can be put in Sveum's lap as he was just following orders.

for 2 years in a row? sorry I was wrong I did some checking Marmol sucked for 3 years in a row. Sveum was not a motivator. I have seen more action out of a stick in the mud.

I had every reason to support Sveum as he's a former Brewer. I got a chance to meet him once and....I wasn't impressed. Kind of a....."you know"....a ******.
