Craig Counsell stuns Brewers, becomes manager of Chicago Cubs (11.06.2023)

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.

Who are some of the possible candidates to replace him?Music intro: https://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music.
