Default Re: Rebuilding the Cubs

i want dusty out of power as badly as anyone, but why does everyone keep pointing to lou piniella as the answer? this is the same guy who, with the mariners in the 90s, accomplished less with more talent than just about any team in history. his reputation is built at least as much on his tirades as his actual management. he's not a fan of OBP or of putting high-OBP guys at the top of the order, which is the primary change the cubs need to make.

davey johnson is a significantly better choice, if he wants the job. hell, bring in earl weaver.
