Craig Counsell shocks the baseball world, signs largest managerial contract in history with Cubs

Milwaukee’s now-ex manager Craig Counsell is a very rich man.

Counsell, who played for the Brewers for the majority of his major league career, turned his back on his hometown team and signed a shocking, five-year contract worth over $40 million. This came as a shock to the baseball world as he was expected to sign with the Mets.

This, of course, leaves David Ross without a job. It’s not impossible for him to end up in Milwaukee, according to a new report.

This is without a doubt, one of the most shocking days in Cubs history.
