David Bell named Cubs 3rd Base Coach

Doug Padilla just tweeted that David Bell was named the Cubs 3rd base coach. Saw it when Jamie Ramsey retweeted it.

A piece from a Cubs blog, not much new.

It's fine with me he couldn't motivate a rock to roll downhill

Re: David Bell named Cubs 3rd Base Coach

Who are the Bats/Reds looking at as possible replacement? DeShields?

Do you have a preference? I don't know where Delino is, but he did great in Dayton, and there seems to be many of those headed toward Louisville. Just kinda seems like a no-brainer to me.............But I don't make the big bucks.

Re: David Bell named Cubs 3rd Base Coach

I really don't know much about Delino or Griffey so I don't know who would be the best fit. They probably will look outside the organization, or move Riggleman up.

I prefer Delino in Pensacola over Griffey.

Re: David Bell named Cubs 3rd Base Coach

Seems like a waste to me. Does anyone on the Cubs ever reach third base? The Cubbies may want to petition Bud Selig and see if he can be there second base coach instead. =)
