I dunno if he'd be a fool. He's got money, he probably likes new challenges. This job would pay well. He may be sick of babysitting superstar prima donnas. The job might be all kinds of attractive to him.

He did what he was asked to do in NY, win a title, he has done well there and is doing well again this year. If he likes a challenge and wants to mold a younger team (if that is indeed the direction) then yeah, this would be attractive to him. Build young WITH a ton of resources to make some good moves. But then again, he is young and succesful managing in a winning atmosphere, would he really want to put himself through the torture of being a Cub Manager? I would love him and accept him with great joy and open arms, but I think the world would question his sanity if he moved from NY to the north side and this debacle.
