1. It had to happen...but it is very sad. He was a class act.
Can't imagine who they will bring in to manage that odd collective....lots of work to do, that's for sure!

6. Wouldn't be shocked at some point in the off season
Edited on Sat Oct-01-11 10:11 PM by hughee99
to hear that new Cubs GM Theo Epstein hired former Red Sox Manager Terry Francona.

They've already called Torre, I'm guessing he was a "no".
