It's spelled "BRENLY."
If they don't give the job to Ryno then he probably winds up managing another franchise within a few years. Ryno isn't gonna sit around as the Cubs' manager in waiting because whoever's hired will have it in mind to be successful...and manage a fair bit longer than a handful of years. The only way to keep him in the fold, other than giving him the job now, is to make whoever's hired put him on his coaching staff. Even then, if an offer comes...he's probably gone. In my mind this probably means he's got an edge on getting the managing job whether or not he's the best available candidate.
