Cubbies
The Cubs signed Dale Sveum as their new manager yesterday. He was the Milwaukee Brewers’ hitting coach, served as interim manager back in 2008 and was a third base coach and the Brewers’ bench coach as well - so Rouse probably knows a lot more about him that I do.
I am happy to have the manager job locked down and kind of excited he is a guy who has played and coached in the NL Central for most of his career.
Now that the easy part is over the Cubs are probably going to completely rebuild the team. This means that a lot of big changes (Aramis Ramirez is leaving for one thing) and that they will probably suck for a year or two. But that is nothing seeing as they have sucked on and off for over 100 years.
