Sweet Lou to Bid Cubs Adieu in MLB Gambling
MLB baseball betting dynamics will likely change for the struggling Cubs, who remain one of the largest money losing overlays on the board with the baseball probabilities. 
Baseball wagering supporters have discovered that Cubs manager Lou Piniella will probably retire at the end of the year, which could alter their approach with the baseball probabilities in sports games bets.
Just 2 years ago the Cubs were the toast of the town as the top team in the NL and the overwhelming favorite to make the World Series. But the Cubs came up flat in their playoff series versus the dodgers and concluded out of the money in the wild card round in an epic upset that strengthened their status as losers.
Piniella and the Cubs never recuperated and declined badly a year ago with the hangover carrying on in the 2010 season.
Chicago had a history of 43-52 at the time of the statement and was 10 games behind the first place St Louis Cardinals in the NL Central division.
The Cubs rated 23rd in run production and 16th for staff earned run average, so they were struggling in all aspects of the competition.
“I said when I came here, one of my first statements, I wasn’t going to be a lifer,” stated Piniella. “I did say that. I also said this was going to be my last job. I wouldn’t manage anywhere else. And I’m holding true to those.” At 66 years of age, Piniella has been in the league for nearly 50 years. He commenced his major league career as the 1969 AL rookie of the year with the Kansas City Royals.
While Piniella doesn’t want to be called a lifer, Cubs general manager Jim Hendry disagrees.
“He’s a lifer,” stated Hendry. “He’s been in the game all his life. I’m sure he’ll want to be back in some capacity.” Piniella said he would consider a consulting job. But his days of the daily MLB wagering grind that comes with being a bench manager may be over.
“I enjoy this game, I really do,” stated Sweet Lou. “So that would be a good way to stay involved, but not in an everyday basis.” The Cubs appointed Piniella as a big name power manager to assist them end their 100 year World Series drought. Though they made the playoffs in Piniella’s first 2 seasons on the job they have also caused considerable baseball wagering frustration as a team that did not meet its potential and with increasingly careless play.
