But most big names are already with teams and get paid. I don't see Girardi leaving NY for the Cubs.

 

He met with the Yanks tonight....If he stays he stays....

 

If the Cubs hire another no name, I'm gonna give up on this franchise...No name coaches aren't gonna get it done unless your a division rival...

Sveum knew coming in that he wouldn't be at Chicago long...

 

I missed that part of his presser.

 

Cubs' fans "hearing" Girardi is coming crack me up.

 

I will be shocked if the new manager isn't Brad Ausmus or a current / former Red Sox coach / manager.

Terry Francona was 285-365 with zero winning records in 4 seasons with the Phillies before taking the Red Sox job. Theo picked him...I think that worked out okay.

Cubs have no interest in Brad Ausmus according to mlbtraderumors.com

 

I'd like to have Terry Francona but would he be interested?

Just now realized he's coaching the Indians....Had a blonde moment there...

I still can't understand how Terry Pendleton isn't a manager yet. Smart, fundamental leader when he played. Has coached and learned under Bobby Cox in Atlanta. There has to be something behind the scenes with him.

I think he's overrated. I don't like him as the hitting coach and I think he's done a poor job in Atlanta. I wish he'd go elsewhere.

He's a good person but just not the right fit IMO.

By all accounts, he's a good coach and teacher. But just because you are a good waitress, it doesn't mean you can run a restaurant.

Girardi has asked the Yankees to let the Cubs talk to him about becoming their manager....Gordon Whittenmeyer (Chicago Sun-Times) is reporting that Cubs are preparing to offer Girardi one of the two most highest paid managers in baseball.

Cubs have a lot of building blocks in place in the farm system which is one if the better ones in all of baseball. Everyone knew He was just holding the spot till the Cubs got the farm system replenished. That has been accomplished and anyone who keeps up with them knows they have a lot potential in the minors. I think Girardi lands with the Cubs. Hometown guy knowing in 2015 the Cubs will be competitive, why wouldn't he want to try to be the savior and forever a Chicago legend? Cubs minor leagues is way ahead of the Yanks.

Now that they have lowered their luxury tax threshold for next season the entire league is the Yankees minor league system.
