Via the Journal Sentinel Podcast: "Wait, WHAT? Craig Counsell isn't coming back to manage the Milwaukee Brewers, but he's not going to the New York Mets as feared ... it's worse. Counsell was named the next manager of the Chicago Cubs, leaving Brewers fans puzzled and hurt. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe discuss the two ways of looking at it: Counsell turning to the Dark Side or the front office being unwilling to accommodate the best manager in franchise history. How much is an MLB manager worth, in general? Is this a sign the Brewers are heading toward a cliff? What did Mark Attanasio say about the fiasco? Who are some of the possible candidates to replace him?"
