joe giardi keeps looking better and better.

F Me In The Brain

Ummm ARoid?  Dirty Baker did a shit job adjusting to any game.  Dude figures out who he likes and he rides with them all of the way until the crash.

Interview process complete. Shoulda kept Girardi

F Me In The Brain

So that is it?
Aaron Boone or Bam Bam?
Who do you Yanks fans think it will be / hope it will be, from the pool you interviewed.

1. Rob Thomson
1a. Bam Bam

I am intrigued by this Woodward dude. Do not want Boone.  Huge fan of Beltran but that is a very quick and fast move.

Elevating Bench coach is more of the same, though?  Wonder if they will go that route.

Rob Thomson has been with the Yanks for over 20 years and supposedly has a great relationship with the players, which it seems is the main factor in why Girardi was let go.

I think they are looking for someone who does the analytics more so basically a numbers guy, no?

I'm never sold on the hype surrounding the Japanese and Korean players coming to MLB.  Only Nomo, Ichiro, Matsui, Darvish, & Tanaka have really ever lived up to it.
I recall when Kosuke Fukudome was the second coming of Mickey Mantle.

George called Irabu 'A Fat Toad'

I would be in shock if they do.  He'd be just a puppet then, no?

You think he can run the sabermatrics though, even though it's spoon fed to him?
