handling a clubhouse, communication with players, knowing when players should get a day off or when to stick with them, combining information from a front office, coaches, scouts, and analysts to apply it.
pretty good, IMO. Yangervis has had two very good at bats against him, including destroying De Leon's worst pitch, but he's making these hitters miss his fastball and is hitting some corners. We'll see how he looks right now now that they've seen him already but thus far, not bad.
They mean nothing compared to game to game managing. Nothing. Not saying he's not overrated, mind you...
the defense on both of the bunts today has cost us some runs. Turners play could have been made and then De Leon's play was bad also. That sucks Find a way to freaking score a few
And 2 months prior to his demotion. And the month in AAA. And his 2 hits in the first game back. I dunno where folks get their definition for consistent but it must not be a very good dictionary.
