They could do a lot worse than Wedge.  Like Ryne Sandberg, for instance.

That's just dumb.  A few years back, there was a guy named Mike Murphy calling the Twins new manager "Gardenvariety" because MacPhail was going to hire him on the cheap.  Instead, we got Don Baylor.

I wouldn't hire Sandberg and I hope the Cubs don't.  But that's only because Sandberg's ability is unknown.  We don't know if he'll be better or worse than Wedge.

:::UPDATE:::

Wow.  Did you know that before Wedge took the Injuns job he was their A manager, then their AA manager, then their AAA manager?

What a fucken pathetic track to become a manager at the major league level.

What'd you smoke this morning?

Yeah, Wedge is a good candidate. It is just troubling that the GM-who-should-be-fired is the one doing the interviewing.

This.

I don't think the differences between Wedge, Girardi, Sandberg, Quade, or whomever is going to mean much given the shitty team one of them could wind up managing.
