Good move by the Cubs.  Maybe he can teach them the art of the lead off out of the screen homer.

Wasn't Sandberg available?

I'd rather have Trammell.


After reading some of sandberg's yahoo columns last year, I'm not so sure I want him coaching the cubs --- especially in a role such a manager or bench coach.

Good to see Tram-Dog back in the bigs, and hopefully after a few years he'll get another shot as a manager...he wasn't that bad in Detroit...he just had some bad luck there.  And the more RBIers as managers, the better MLB is.

if he sticks with Lou, he might be the manager in 3 years.
