flavum Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Greg Maddux has been hired to be an assistant to GM Jim Hendry. What that entails, I have no idea. Show up and talk pitching once in a while, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What that entails, I have no idea. Show up and talk pitching once in a while, I suppose. He was on Chicago Tribune Live and mentioned that the job was going to be "far from a full-time gig". So yeah, you'd have to assume it'd be more of an emeritus position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah, you'd have to assume it'd be more of an emeritus position. He was asked by Dave Caplin on WGN last night as to what he will do at his new job and it took him about 10 seconds of ummms and uhhhhhs to come up with his job description. If you cant tell someone what you job is within 3 seconds, it's not a real job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Maddux loves golf, he spent a ton of time playing even on his off days during the season. This has to be 99% PR move, because I don't see him putting the clubs away long enough to take this seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clyons Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Soto lost 37 in the pounds in the offseason, and the Cubs are supposedly "ecstatic." http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...,0,124387.story I mean, why wouldn't they be? When a guy whose minor league power numbers suddenly spike and then dramatically plummet loses tons of weight, it can only be a good thing, right?

Princess Dye Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Do the Cubs have even one good young major league level player? Randy Wells and Soto and maybe that's it? Soto only depending on a bounceback year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Sounds like Soto went to the Ivan Rodriguez school of weight loss (ie. off of the PEDs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
