Ah fuck it. Have yourself a fun farewell season, Grandpa.
I hope his final game ends with him getting doused in champagne.
I'm a David Ross fan. Maybe it's just because I love that we finally have a guy who can execute a snap throw behind a runner on first a couple times per season. Those rule.
Bam!
His double and fake steal thingy was a masterstroke. I'm convinced in the magic of Grandpa. He fucking owns.

My nickname for him is "Lord Bloodraven" because he's over a hundred years old, he has magic and he fucking owns.

He can get the bulk of the playing time over Montero for as long as he can handle it, as far I'm concerned. I was calling last night the Travis Wood game which is funny to me at least, but what Ross did was just as remarkable. What a season he's having. And they're so good offensively that his struggles at the plate don't really offset all the good work he's doing behind it.

Yeah, pretty good with at least a 50/50 split of the catching duties. Montero is just painful to watch at the plate right now, and he can't throw anymore. Let Grandpa play as long as he wants to, and by that I mean until Willson Contreras goes nuts in September like he's Geovany Soto in 2007 and eventually becomes the catcher for the playoffs. Except this time we'll make sure Oleg doesn't introduce him to the devil's tobacco.

Also the best defense in the game. Which owes something to David Ross, so kudos. But catcher's ERA is dumb as hell, and it's something Cardinals fans throw out to prop up their ludicrous YADI FOR HOF campaign. So no.

Somebody has to post a .gif of Grandpa's "FUCK YEAH" from the top of the 7th after picking off Gyorko at first.

I think a lot of us would love to see him coach somewhere for the Cubs, but he said he wants to take at least a year off to spend with his family. It'd be cool if they could get him to be at least a ST instructor.

That has to be the single dumbest attempt to psyche out an opponent I've ever seen. I get fans of many teams trying to remind the Cubs of their past failures as if it matters, but

Now some Cubs podcast wants me to come on each week that Ross dances to offer expert analysis. I'll probably just talk about how fucking hot Sharna Burgess is.

No posts/commentary on Ross as manager?
The inexperience doesn't worry me. I just want the Cubs to utilize every possible advantage, especially advanced statistics, and I have zero idea as to whether or not Ross will do that. However, I trust the front office, so long as they aren't signing free agents to massive contracts, since most of those have been kind of busty.

Although there are a number of well qualified candidates, the popular and sentimental choice in my opinion, is David Ross. On the basis of experience he is the least qualified of the announced candidates, although a veteran catcher does do a lot of coaching when the opposing team is batting. I am ok with anyone who has no ties to St. Louis.

I guess this place really is dead.
No posts/commentary on Ross as manager?
The inexperience doesn't worry me. I just want the Cubs to utilize every possible advantage, especially advanced statistics, and I have zero idea as to whether or not Ross will do that. However, I trust the front office, so long as they aren't signing free agents to massive contracts, since most of those have been kind of busty.
Wait, are the Cubs signing those two models who whipped their tits out the other night?
1. Hopefully.
2. I kind of feel the idea of communicating the analytics to the players probably came up in the interview.
