According to Bruce Levine, Tom Ricketts as talked to Mike Quade, Ryne Sandberg, and Eric Wedge about the Cubs management vacancy. A decision could be made very soon according to sources but I think it is likely that it will last another week or so before an official announcement is made. According to the media there is actually "no known favorite" but it seems the flavor of the day is Eric Wedge who had his meeting with Ricketts today.
Carrie Muskat said today that Bob Melvin also met with Tom Ricketts. I do not expect him to be a legit canidate for the job. Jon Morosi said Don Wakamatsu is still in the running but it is unknown if he has meant with Ricketts. I have heard that Don is considered for a bench coach position if Wedge or Melvin get picked to manage the Cubs. I also heard if Sandberg is named manager he will bring in former Cubs and coaches on to his staff. Mark Grace? Glenn Allen Hill? Pat Listach?
Until Next Time....
