i hope they get the baseball version of norv turner. that would be the ultimate end result.

Football coaches are far more important than baseball managers. Systems win in football when you have the right players to execute them. Baseball managers can screw up the pitching staff and play the wrong guys but baseball strategy is overrated in comparison to football.
