What we’re hearing about the Cubs behind the scenes

While the focus should be on the World Series, the baseball industry is also going through the hiring-and-firing season for coaches and executives. The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney give you the details on what this means in Wrigleyville. Their reporting provides details on Jared Banner taking a GM job in Baltimore, the Mets looking at Pete Crow-Armstrong’s personal hitting coach and the Cubs running it back with their pitching coaches. Plus more on an outside-the-box candidate in Seattle’s manager search and the Cubs hiring an international scout away from the Rays.
