Thanks, Joe


We can debate for hour his merits as a manager.  He didn't do things by the book.  He made plenty of head-scratching moves.  Some worked, some didn't.

But because of him, despite of him, or whatever, he led the Cubs to a World Series victory.  And you can't argue with that.

Yesterday, Theo and Joe agreed to part ways.  It seems like the best move for both.

Thank you Joe for 471 wins and a .582 winning percentage over that past five seasons.


And thanks, Joe, for this!

    I wish he started Lester in the 2015 Wild Card Game. I feel like if the 2015 Pirates got into the NLDS they had a legit shot at being WS Champs that year.

    I hope he teams up with Trout, Ohtani and La Stella and wins another ring.

    Coolest eyeware in baseball. I wonder where he'll be managing next season. Maybe he'll come to the Bay Area and manage the Giants.

    I think this will prove to be a mistake.
