Chicagoan Kevin DeBolt may have overheard confirmation of the Ryne Sandberg back-to-the-Chicago-Cubs rumor. Says KB on FB Thursday morning, “Just walked past a certain Mr. Ryne Sandberg on Michigan Ave. He was on his phone talking about hitting coaches. I’m NOT joking. Could there be a DOUBLE announcement this weekend?”
DeBolt is referring to the expected announcement that Former Boston Red Sox General Manager Theo Epstein will be the new GM of the Cubs and that Chicago Cub Hall of Famer, Ryne Sandberg would be the new head Head Coach of the Cubs.
East Portland Blog Sports Editor Ron Swanson is unfazed, “That wouldn’t surprise me,” says Swanson. “I believe Epstein offered Ryno a job with the Red Sox before he took one with the Phillies last year.”
