I think I like this more than anyone on the list.

 

"When I was back in Boston we had POS naysayers just like Irish running around. Don't even try to hate on me punk bkitch. I have more baseball sense in my mustache than you do in your entire body. I've been watching baseball way before your smart ass even came into this world. I've been in the valley long before your butt buddy Diablo "liked" your pathetic post. So when I am anointed manager of the LA Dodgers, you can both come lick my left nut before you even think about hopping on the bandwagon."

Brad Ausmus sounds good to me, but what if he's another "old school" type? We don't know what style he will use and that's frightening. What if he cannot keep the peace in the clubhouse? What if - what if?
At least with Don we know what we have and it was successful. That is unless anything less than a WS title is unsuccessful in which case enjoy being upset 99% of the time no matter who your team is. Even the Cardinals don't win it most years.

Really bro. He did play for the Yankees though.

 

Per several twitter updates. Mattingly wasn't involved in the decision, management wants experienced NL game manager as replacement.

 

Nm didn't see this on the end of the Mattingly love/hate fest thread.

 

I'm not advocating for Donny to be canned, i'm just saying if he goes i'd prefer Ausmus to all those old guys.

 

Could you even fucking imagine what a disaster it would be having LaRussa or Leyland dealing with Puig

 

Yeah, I love the idea of an ivy leaguer and a catcher managing. Good brains! However, I'd like to see him as a bench coach for awhile first. We should steal him from the Tigers org, and make him the Hillman replacement.

 

Dont worry... this is worth its own thread...

I always found interesting that he had Hillman as bench coach, as he has been an AL guy... and not a very good manager on his own...

I know they love Lopes as 1B coach, but I always thought he was a better fit for bench coach... Wallach is also a good fit, but I doubt DBB accepts management imposing Wallach as bench coach...

 

In Brad's defense... He had one more game managerial experience than Donnie had when he took over .

 

I thought that was interesting too, both Donnie and trey were AL guys. Do you think Torre's old bench coach Larry Bowa could be welcomed back?

@THEREAL_DV: The Dodgers wanted to replace Hillman last off season, but Mattingly resisted the change. #dodgers

 

1. No
2. He'll be a coach for the Phillies

 

that starts making sense... so probably DBB knew it was coming...
