Mike Quade is one of the nicest guys in the baseball business. You ask any executive in they will speak highly of him on a professional and personal level. However, with the hiring of Theo Epstein as the head of baseball operations, the ax on Quade’s career was due to fall very soon. This happened today as Quade was fired as Cubs manager.
Despite the firing, former Cubs great Ryan Sandberg is not going to be a candidate. He is a candidate for the St. Louis opening as the Phillies (where Sandberg manages Philadephia’s AAA affiliate) have granted the Cardinals permission to speak to Sandberg about their managerial opening.
Anyone who knows Epstein does not see this as a surprise. While Epstein is putting a major bullseye on his back if Sandberg were to become successful at rival St. Louis, high profile managers are not his cup of tea. So expect a low profile hire on Epstein’s part, but for his sake Sandberg better not be too successful in St. Louis.
