That a columnist for the Chicago Sun-Times is arguing that the Cubs should keep GM Jim Hendry is already pretty stunning, but I also had to chuckle at this part.
And don’t bet the house that the next GM will be an improvement, especially considering the cast of baseball newbies and wannabes who figure to be making that hire. Considering some baseball insiders believe Josh Byrnes and Ned Colletti would be near the top of the Cubs’ list, head-hunting fans might want to be careful what they wish for.
Josh Byrnes would be an enormous improvement on Hendry, but Ned Colletti? As a fan of an NL Central team, I say PLEASE LET THIS BE TRUE.
