I will miss Chip Hale. He knows how a baseball team should dress.
And the timing on Mookie…do you think anyone will be talking about Mookie in the next few weeks?
Curious what Colactus is up to. We’ll see. I’ll let the smart baseball blogs analyze who used to coach for Houston, Los Angeles of Anaheims and the Moneyballs.
Really is a bummer about Chip Hale. I felt like he was a good fit from what I saw.
Chip was going to the Oakland A’s as soon as Bob Melvin took the managers job.
I was surprised the pitching coach did not get fired, Mookie is a bit of a surprise.
