By all accounts, the Theo Epstein to the Cubs deal is done, but when and for what is still uncertain.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel says he will "sit down" with the owners of the Cubs about their efforts to get funding from the city for renovations at Wrigley Field.
The Red Sox enjoyed two championships because of the hard work and insight of their General Manager Theo Epstein. Now the Cubs hope to experience the same fruits of labor, but it will take the right amount of time and the correct Theo Epstein.
Cubs slugger and third baseman Aramis Ramirez said last month that he was "ready to move on," but now, he is leaving the door open to return.
Thanks to a once-thought-impossible confluence of circumstances -- Boston's historic collapse, an opening at Clark and Addison, and one man's desire to leave the nurturing nest of his home city and spread his wings -- Theo Epstein is reportedly ready to be the Cubs' top baseball executive for five years and many millions.
As reports continue to swirl around Chicago and Boston that Theo Epstein is indeed headed to the Cubs, one baseball analyst thinks this could be the start of a new brand of baseball in Wrigleyville.
But before I can even ponder the impact of Theo at Wrigley, I first need to wrap my head around what the heck White Sox GM Kenny Williams is up to these days at U.S. Cellular Field – a place that somehow has become even nuttier now that Ozzie Guillen has left the building.
A published report says Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein has agreed to come to the Cubs on a five-year deal.
According to a report from the Boston Herald, two sources have confirmed that Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein is on the verge of leaving his post with Boston to join the Cubs.
Gerry Callahan of the Boston Herald thinks the those rumors could turn into realities in the near future.
