So no reason to think Sandberg would be bench coach.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Sure there's a reason. The same reasoning that you just gave with Trammell. If the Cubs think Sandberg is the manager of the future - which, regardless of his HOF player status, he's a rising star in the managerial ranks - they may want him as a bench coach with the big club (or some other coaching capacity, like hitting instructor as the article suggests). Is there a limit on bench coaches?

Yes. There's a limit on the number of coaches that a team can have in uniform. There's been nothing from the Cubs to indicate that they think Sandberg is the manager of the future or a shoo-in for the job in 2011.

This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena. ![[Image: ITgoyeg.png]](http://i.imgur.com/ITgoyeg.png)
