Would be a helluva first impression from a new GM to come in and replace the winningest manager in team history, who is regarded as one of the top managers in the game, and is a local guy on top of it all. I'd agree that at this point, Counsell has more job security than any manager in the majors. The fact that he is truly a local guy and seemingly wants to be here long-term likely means that when he does leave, it will likely be on his own terms. I agree and I would be shocked if Counsell left on his own terms which means Counsell will probably be here for a really long time which I'm perfectly happy with at this point.
