Agreed that Cubs will most likely choose a younger manager - who’ll be much cheaper than Joe. Believe current thinking / research is that managers have small impact on overall season record so manager’s value has been historically over estimated.
Agree that an average manager probably doesn’t make a significant impact but Maddon wasn’t an average manager. Can’t see Cubs making jump from 2014 to winning series in 2016 without him.
No clue who manager will be in 2020 but like all Cub fans hoping he gets the most out of the roster and resources the Cubs provide.
