Didn’t know Counsell’s best friend was Parkins’ brother (who passed away).

Ok, Parkins is being silly…he just said the Diamondbacks would have been as justified as the Cubs in replacing Lovello with Counsell. Or if the Cubs had made a playoff run.

If Ross gets a manager's job he'll be a rough sell to fans coming off two tank years followed by a September collapse.

Doesn't it seem like the Score is more enthusiastic about this hire than the fans or any other media outlet?

From what I've seen on my social media from Cub fans...they're very happy about it.

I don't get the excitement. The Brewers have been very good and have had a nice run making the playoffs. I think that has a lot more to do with General Managing than it does the on-field manager. I personally do not care for Counsell's style of managing, but I do not think he's a BAD manager. I'd say the same about David Ross. All things being equal in terms of roster and GM moves...I don't think Counsell makes the Cubs any better.

Counsell makes MLB worse.
