If the Cubs would have taken the money they just gave Counsell and spent it on some bullpen arms last June, the Cubs would have been in the playoffs.

he was the same as a cub player as he was a cub coach, way over loved for subjective reasons, especially at the totally object corporate partner 670 the Score

Watch how quickly Bernstein jumps from loving Rossy to loving Craigy. Then he will report "whisperings" about Ross

Atleast Ross will be available to take over for Grifol next year.

I love how you pivot so quickly to mouthing Counsell now. At least you have a new schtick for the next few years worked out while the Sox suck. Caller dolphin

I’m not really a fan of Ross and haven’t paid much attention to the Cubs the last couple years to say whether he was as bad as the Cubs threads here make it seem, but we’ll just see how many more wins the great Craig Counsell’s dynamic managing skills give the Cubs.

As a manager, when someone offers you a deal nearly as big as the Sox offer their best players, you have to take it. Counsell can't be concerned about the way the Cubs treated his predecessors. Fuck them!

Thought counsell was a shoe in for the Mets.

Cubs slithered their way in and got him.

They've recycled the same press release for the 3rd time.

RFDC may be right, but there is precedent that has been set. There is zero reason to assume anything other than the Cubs fucked over Ross, just as they did Renteria.

This is a big move for them though. I wish my White Sox were this proactive.

The cubs did screw over Ross. Who cares. It’s called business.

Ross may have been a good clubhouse manager and willing to take suggestions from the front office, but he was a mediocre at best in-game tactical manager. That probably cost them the playoff spot that went to Arizona, although the Cubs probably wouldn't have gotten out of the NLDS.

And that probably cost Ross an extension, and as a lame duck manager it's time to go.

The Cubs don't owe Ross shit. He had no experience when they took him in and groomed him to be a manager on a fast track despite no credentials or resume

The Guardians just hired Steven Vogt to replace Francona. He wasn't even in their organization, he's just a lifelong backup catcher who seems to be smart and personable.

Players are traded / cut all the time while still under contract, but apparently it’s sacrilege to do it to a manager .

Only Sux fans seem to have an issue with it, though they are used to an organization that rewards decades of non accomplishments with seemingly lifetime positions.
