Former Chicago Cubs manager David Ross faces a very narrow path back to the big leagues and doesn't seem to be a popular candidate heading into the offseason.
Former Chicago Cubs manager David Ross faces a narrow path back to a Major League dugout this offseason, according to Cubbies Crib writer Jake Misener. After being dismissed by Cubs executive Jed Hoyer in November 2023 in favor of Craig Counsell, Ross has spent the past three seasons working as an MLB analyst for ESPN.
Misener argues that Ross faces steep competition for openings such as the Seattle Mariners job against managers who have managed more recently, including Joe Espada, Rocco Baldelli, and Brandon Hyde. The writer notes that after compiling a 262-284 record with the Cubs, Ross may struggle to find another managerial role unless he expands the opportunities he considers.
