Yeah I agree, I want Ryno. I think he will be a good one.

Just looking at Lou and Dusty -- I don't think either of them were remotely prepared for what they were getting themselves into. Managing the Cubs isn't like managing other teams and I don't think you can understand it until you experience it.
Sandberg never won a WS with the Cubs, but it was hardly his fault. He killed in both NLCS series he played in.
His postseason stats: .385/.457/.641
