Good for him. Can enjoy life sitting on millions.

Seems like a good dude. Excellent career. Wish he had started instead of Hammel in the playoffs.

would be surprised if Ross doesn't join him soon enough

yep

You guys think Ross retires this offseason? I can't see him leaving a years worth of salary on the table.

He's an old dude with young kids and multiple concussions in his history. I could see it happening.

[sneakypower]

we'll probably promise him some coaching job somewhere within the org. to curry his favor

[davell]

If Davey gets a managerial gig, I guess I could see Ross taking his place. Goony brought up a good point about the concussions in the other thread too.

Maybe he moves on, but it feels a little bit like projecting out wishful thinking.

 

Congrats on a great career Haren.

I thought it was foregone conclusion Ross was gonna retire after next season. Especially since they reached the NLCS and given the Cubs' chances at being a juggernaut next season, I don't see why he would want to retire before his last year of the contract.

Yeah the only way I could possibly see Ross retiring this offseason would be if Martinez got a head coaching job and he was offered the bench coach job.

Dan Haren ranks seventh all time in strikeout-to-walk ratio.

[minnesotacubsfan]

I think he means SD Ross

I think he means SD Ross

 

Oh yeah? He a candidate to retire already?

[minnesotacubsfan]

Wrong thread on my part, I was thinking of Ross (sd) replacing someone in the rotation.
