There's talk the Angels and Padres might go after him. SD would be a logical fit because they have all these prospects coming up, and they would probably love to see 2015-16 Cubs redux.
Maddon has that So-Cal vibe to him as well....

The game has surpassed Joe.

He's not Matheny level. But he is in over his head. His decisions this year for the Cubs have been mind-bogglingly bad.

He was effective when he thought he was original for doing shifts and maximizing value moving players all around the diamond. But the analytics guys out now are always a couple steps ahead of him. And his message is stale to boot.

He used to be Scioscia's bench coach for years with the Angels

And shutting down Hendricks and Darvish. It's really going to be embarrassing when we get swept.

No kidding. All they need to do is throw out some stupid crappy junkballers we've never seen and we'll K our way into getting swept.
