Jake Arrieta already put his Chicago home up for sale. Pretty sure we all knew he wasn't coming back. But, this confirms that.

Just to clear this up, Arrieta doesn't own a house in Chicago. He and his wife were renting a place that according to her "they moved out of weeks ago" and "were moving out no matter what happens."

Also, Chris Bosio is out as pitching coach here. I knew there would be changes at Wrigley, just didn't expect it to be that and this soon.

Re: 2017-2018 MLB Hot Stove Thread
Remember in 2011 when Jim Riggleman resigned as manager midseason? Then Davey Johnson took over, and then retired after 2013. Then there was the Matt Williams debacle. Dusty Baker guided the Nationals to back to back playoffs for the first time in Nats/Expos history. While it seems easy with the Nat's roster, I'm sure Nats fans would like to forget the missed opportunities that were 2013 and 2015.

Based on how the team's contracts were set, riding it out with Dusty for one more year makes sense before they have to retool a bit. Gio, Murphy, and Harper are hitting FA after 2018; the roster will still be strong, but there will be holes to fill.

I don't know who would want to manage the Nats. You have to win a World Series to keep there job. Which the organization has never done. The manager get let go after putting the game in his ace hands out of the bullpen and franchise player striking out.

The Mets hire Mickey Callaway as their next manager.

Interesting, he's definitely hired for working on the Mets pitching staff but I have no clue what he's like as a tactical manager especially one in the NL.

Red Sox officailly hire Alex Cora. He takes over as soon as the World Series is over.
