While the contract hasn\’t been finalized yet, the Cubs are reportedly hiring catcher David Ross as their next manager.
Cubs President Theo Epstein told the Chicago Tribune, “It’s an obvious goal, but we want to make sure the players we have, we’re developing them and creating an environment where they can continue to grow and thrive. If we have players who can be successful major-league players, we have to find a way to make it here.”
After numerous interviews with former managers and current coaches, they appear to have landed on Ross. Though he doesn\’t have any formal manager experience on his resume, he\’s demonstrated his leadership skills throughout his career.
