This is ALL to hire Joe Madden the Cubs ex-manager. He is a former member of the Angels organization and they are slobbering to hire him.

Yep. I read just the other day, they intended to keep him for at least one more season.. I assumed he had to be in trouble when he seemed to have to explain his decisions to his players during the game.

They can have Maddon. The Cubs tanked the last 2 seasons right at the end. The fans wanted his head.

What’s ironic is that a baseball manager is less relevant today than ever before. Today, the manager is just a guy who does what the GM’s computer programs tell him to do.

I think you are correct. Joe took the big ZOT from the Cubs pretty well it appeared....almost like the he knew he had the Angels, or someone else’s, manager gig already lined up. We will see I guess.

I didn't realize Madden had ties to the Angels.
