Would give Theo and Jed some cover for blowing it with Yu and Chatwood, if it wasn't that the offense crapped the bed.

Joe was the right man for the job early on, but this team is in the middle of its window of opportunity and cant continue to let this clown make decisions in the dugout. That said, Joe cant go up there and hit for these guys. The incredible droughts of hitting this season make it incredible to me that they managed to win 95 games.

The 2014 Giants were just as inept at hitting, won only 88 games, and won a World Series.

So it happens.

But if Joe is launched, you are probably looking at David Ross as your next Cub manager.

I mean in theory the Cubs still could win the WS this year.

It's not an accident that the flagship plunged Maddon into a leadership controversy, you know.

I've never seen a manager of a good team panic the way Maddon does.

95 wins with Nothing from Darvish and Chatwood a half season from Morrow and DL trips for Bryant and Rizzo.

Get rid of Chili Davis first of all.

Red Sox got rid of him last year and look at the offensive #'s they put up this year.

Joe will be here for another year or two. Then he'll go coach the White Sox in 2021.
