His contract includes two more club-option seasons.


Wow! The last line is the biggest one in the story. Theo loves this guy so much but can't give him a 2 year contract? What a total classless move by the Cubs.

Not sure, I read that as 3+2, not 1+2.

and Boy do they cater to those BIG market teams ...here is the TOP 5 systems in Matt's article

1. Boston...yep a BIG market 9th in home attendance
2. Houston... uh no 27th in home attendance NOT a popular team
3. San Diego.. another no 20th in home attendance NOT a popular team
4. Texas... OK 5th in home attendance
5. CUBS... YEP BIG market BIG fan base 12th in home attendance
5. Kansas City ... I don't think so 26th in home attendance NOT a popular team

Yep definitely catering to those popular teams at least 50% of the time




Boston (7), Houston (10), Dallas-Ft. Worth (5), and Chicago (3) are all top ten markets.

Oh yeah,I see it now. Skimmed over that...thanks! 3 years is a good deal for an untested guy. I hope they give this guy some players!!! Maybe they got rid of Sveum because of the slow start both seasons when he DID have a better team before the flipping.

It doesn't matter. He won't see that third year. But hey, he speaks Spanish so he obviously can develop all those latin prospects like Bryant, Almora and Baez.

Yeah,that whole bi-lingual thing is bullshit. The Cubs had Ivan DeJesus coaching here 3 years ago. Let's hire him back to coach and get the MOST QUALIFIED MAN TO MANAGE.
