Didn't see this anywhere but they're talking about it on Sportsnite. Ryno is the new Tennessee Smokies manager. Movin on up and hopefully he's with the big club in the next few years.
Jody Davis is the Cubs catching coordinator now as well.

I'd say he's on the fast track. I'd love to know more about his managing, other than the fact that he seems to get the boot quite often.

Good for Ryno. I await the day that he enters the big league as a manager and I certainly hope that he does so with us.

I think he is being groomed as Lou's replacement.

A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.
In much the same way the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

I would bet that he'll be our bench coach in a year or 2 and then replace Lou immediately afterward.

Every time Quinn posts, this song is in my head:

I'm 100% fine with this. I'm just glad there's an actual plan in place that isn't, "Let's load up on retreads and hope we get lucky." I'm a little tired of that plan.
