Let the young kids play!! You see what happens!!!

We are going to have a dynamite offense within a couple of years.


I agree.... now if only they could figure out the pitching staff....

Anyone still around? I haven't been around much since I got myself a brand new baby boy two weeks ago.

Time for offseason changes around here and it looks like they aren't wasting any time by taking Gardy out.

Not surprised myself. He's a good manager, but with the losing track record it was the right move to make.

Thanks Nos. Think any more heads will roll on the coaching staff following Gardy's removal?

I know I've head a lot of people calling for Rick Anderson. Might not be a bad idea to go in a different direction there either. I mean just look at how long the rotation has looked the way it does.

Congrats on the new addition!

From what I understand, everyone on Gardy's staff was fired, allowing the next manager to form his own staff.

Gardy was a good manager and did what he could with what he had....which isn't saying much. At any rate, it was time for a change in culture... especially with the youngsters in the minor leagues.

Hopefully, Buxton and Sano can get back on the trajectory they were on once they're fully healed.

Paul Moliter would be cool to see.

Please god no on Ozzie G! :puke:


Paul Molitor would be ok.


I've never had a problem with Ozzie G. He told you how it was, and with our growing Latin contingent in the minors, he makes more sense than you'd realize.

I wouldn't mind seeing someone from outside the organization come in.... I just don't know who that would be.

I'm not a fan of Ozzie G. Period. That's cool that he can speak the same language as some of the players but I don't dig his coaching style. That's all. One guy. One opinion.

Maybe they should try to get Redmond to come over from the Marlins. lol
I'd actually welcome that but I think he is staying put in Miami.

I'm definitely cool with Molitor being the manager but Ozzie would be ok as well. Sure he's a nutjob but as it says hes latin.

All of our young talent is Spanish for the most part...Vargas, Santana, Arcia, Berrios, Escobar, Sano etc..

Vargas can speak English decently enough the rest I have only seen quotes through interpreters except a week ago with Santana which was a disaster.

I'm not a fan of Ozzie either, we don't need the head coach to speak spanish, just hire a bench coach or hitting coach that do...

Regardless, they need to do something other than having Tony O as the ceremonial guy...

I just want them to hire the anti-gardy! I don't care what color he is or where he's from.
