Seemed like a nice man, just not the manager I wanted. Let the rumors begin who will replace him.

Re: Quade OUT!!!
Since Ryne Sandberg is no longer part of the organization, possibly Rays bench coach Dave Martinez? His name has been discussed a lot in Chicago. The Sandberg/Martinez conflict stems from Martinez's time as a player for the Cubs in the late 1980s...Sandberg's first wife (Cindy) was apparently providing...ahem..."benefits"...for several of Ryno's fellow Cubs with Martinez and Raffy Roids being the two most often linked to these escapades. It was a main factor in the trades that sent them both packing.

Re: Quade OUT!!!
Also, Milwaukee's Dale Sveum has been discussed in recent hours, as Sveum was part of Epstein's 2004 champs in Boston, and has ample coaching experience on the MLB level.
Finally, a potential nightmare may await Cubs fans, as the Cardinals have approached the Phillies for permission to talk to Sandberg about their just vacated manager post.
Stay tuned for further developments...

Terry Francona is now being considered, as are Sveum, Pete Mackanin and Mike Maddux. More to follow...

Re: Quade OUT!!!
I agree. My hopes were always Ryno, afterall, he managed many of their current players in the minors and I don't believe many know the game better or work harder at improving than he. But I figured others wouldn't think so. I'm sure some of the luster has already worn off of Epstein, with this decision...to many a Cubbie fan. However, his job I guess is to do the thing that will help them win...not just the popular choice. However, I don't like the idea of him bringing all of "His People" in...because it worked in Boston doesn't mean it will work in Chicago. They aren't exactly working with the same pieces on the field as they already had in place upon his arrival in Boston."We need rebirth of the American tradition of leadership ... in private life as well."
