Interesting enough this is rumored to be a FO move as opposed to a Banny direct hire. Perhaps there is a shorter leash on Banny than we are aware of

Maybe wakamatsu can help bring the pitching changes back into line.

Banny has been awful at managing the pen.

Since he has managed too, perhaps he is a potential midseason replacement. Also, perhaps his Japanese heritage may have some bearing on Ohtani sweepstakes

I think the move is definitely a positive, especially because I’m not sold on rooster or his leadership capabilities.

The move has a nice ring to it

Anyone interested in Geo Soto?

Did Beltran even play in the postseason?

I almost kinda feel bad for Darvish at this point

 

[Kelleyman]

Yes he had a bad year and injuries but not too long ago was elite

IKF is still learning the position. He will need another year or two in the minors I would think.

But he prefers the Dodgers.

Gotta factor recent events into that... he just went to Game 7 of the world series with them. probably hasn't processed anything else.

the kid has been lighting them up at every level and it didn't matter what position he played. like Gallo, DeShields and others he has shown that he can do it.

Well he sure needs to define the bottom line

the question is do the dodgers want him back and how high are they willing to take their payroll. they could decide to pass on him and then it will come down to which team is going to pay the price
