Cubs hire Quade as manager

[Luckyluciano]

From CBSSPORTSLINE:



"they've given the job to 53-year-old Mike Quade, who today signed a two-year deal with an option for 2013."

"Quade is a baseball lifer, as colleague Scott Miller detailed in a column last month. He earned plenty of respect for his work during years in the minor leagues, and as a major-league coach. He earned even more for the way he handled the job of interim manager after Piniella left, and the Cubs' 24-13 record under his watch no doubt helped convince general manager Jim Hendry to give him the job full-time."
