The Cubs welcome Craig Counsell and introduce him as the 56th manager in franchise history.

  1. Craig is clearly a very genuine and thoughtful person to go along with his incredible managerial resume.

    Glad he’s on our side now (and I hope Rossy gets another opportunity elsewhere)

  2. I'm trying so hard here but so far here I am just coming up with that he can be a very good politician for sure…every time they asked him tough questions he just kept going in circles and just kept talking with out giving a real answer…but there where a few he answered great…really happy to hear how him and Rossy spoke!!!

  3. If they don’t win WS means nothing making playoffs year after year like the blue crew did . He didn’t win anything

  4. Great job Cubs organization time to start a winning team with this squad and opportunity 🤝🏼💪🏼🙏🏼

  5. One thing for sure this team will be prepared. CC will definitely increase the game intelligence/situational awareness of this team and I think that is what gets the most out of a player. When he makes changes or a gameplan, each player will know their roll and how that "connects" to the success of The Team.

  6. As a 50 year Cubs fan i haven't been this excited since the Cubs hired Joe Maddon seeing Craig Counsell in a Cubs uniform is wild to me 😮😂😂

  7. Best of luck to Ross and Counsell. Ross has to take this as a bump on the road and keep moving forward.

    Now lets get a bat and an ace!!

  8. I havent looked forward to a cubs season more than next year now!! Few pieces we need to add to the party and with craig now the skipper we have a bright future

  9. “UHM”

    if you do a drinking game with the amount of “uhms” this guy churns out you’d be wasted

  10. Not bashing the dude byt when he mentions resources and then challenges.. he had a challenge in Milwaukee to help win them a World Series, their first… it's also the team he spent 17 years with and where his roots are.. point blank ain't bashing the dude for taking the $$.. but obviously his choice was the $$ resources obviously his own $$ resources and the psyroll the Cubs ownership and front office should provide.. but still don't blame you Craig.. not speaking from a Brewers or Cubs fans perspective but a fellow NL Central Pirate fan 👍

  11. Counsel has been part of a couple of World Series championship teams. I think this is a great fit for manager. Good luck Cubs! Go for another title!
