Dusty Baker Joins Cubs
Sponsored by:
Dusty Baker is moving to Chicago.
The former San Francisco Giants manager is taking on the same job at the Chicago Cubs — and accepting one of baseball´s most challenging assignments.
Baker takes over baseball´s long-time losers less than a month after leading the Giants to the World Series.
He agreed to a four-year contract, a deal thought to be worth between $14 million and $16 million.
Baker is a three-time National League Manager of the Year.
He spent ten seasons with the Giants before leaving last week following differences with San Francisco owner Peter Magowan.
