Yadier Molina makes Cubs admission that will make Cardinals fans sick
Would Yadi put on the Chicago blue?
The St Louis Cardinals are in the throws of a rebuild. Franchise legends Albert Pujols, Adam Wainwright, and Yadier Molina have all retired, leaving the team without a true identity. Pujols has caught the coaching bug, saying that he wants to become a Major League manager. His Cardinals teammate Molina says that he is also looking to become a manager and he would even consider coaching the Cubs.
“I have the passion right now for coaching and teaching,” Molina told The Athletic’s Katie Woo. “I would love to have that experience and think I can have that soon, but like I said I’m concentrating on my family. That’s the hard part for me to make a decision about managing.”
Molina said that he is partial to the Cardinals organization but would take a job anywhere. Like literally, anywhere. “But this is baseball, right?” Molina continued. “If we decide as a family, if I have a chance to manage, I can manage anywhere. … I’d manage the Chicago Cubs, if they want.”
The Cubs have the most expensive manager in the league, with Craig Counsell entering his second season in the Windy City. But Molina has a long way to go before becoming an MLB manager.
