I'm not suggesting a hurry. But Lou is gonna be done soon and if Ryno isn't brought along, he has to wait out someone else's tenure...which is ok if that's a narrowly defined tenure. Do you think he'll wait indefinitely to manage the Cubs? Someone else might offer him a job. We have no way of knowing whether that would be a tragedy or dodging a bullet but it would be good for the Cubs to manage these options well.
