I don't blame him. This has been a rough year. Managing the Cubs is never easy

Lou will be 67 later this year. With Bobby Cox (69) also hanging it up, could Joe Torre (70) and Tony LaRussa (66 in Oct.) be far behind?

I could see Torre retiring at the end of the year as well, though I think managing the Dodgers has rejuvinated him after all those years in New York.

I think LaRussa will try to win another ring in the next few years before he calls it a career

As an Astro fan, I hope LaRussa retires soon...but as a baseball fan, It's going to be sad to see him go.

LaRussa will manage for another decade

LaRussa isn't leaving until Pujols does
