Yeah, I thought that would be the case because Ryno is kind of a do the little things, throwback type manager. I don't know if that is good or bad. If Sandberg were successful it would be a great story, but if he was not it could get ugly and tarnish a legacy.

I'm not sure how losing with a team that's basically never won would tarnish anything. Williams and Jenkins have both coached on the MLB level with the Cubs and they've survived just fine, I wouldn't expect any different from Sandberg.
That being said, I'm not really interested in handing the team over to him. I'd rather see him transition to an MLB coaching position prior to handing him the entire MLB team as the manager. Trammell would be my choice to take over for Lou currently, but I'm not sure how much different the team would actually be ran with him as opposed to Lou.
