The Cubs have their guy.
No, they don’t have Shohei Ohtani or Cody Bellinger (yet), but they have Craig Counsell, and in his first press conference with his new squad, he seemed like the right man for the job. In front of the media, Counsell explained that “it’s time to be a Cub.”
“That is the challenge I have ahead of me,” Counsell said. “It’s a big one. It takes time but it’s the one I have to get right.”
While the White Sox continue to shed talent, the Cubs future is possibly brighter than ever before.
