The mind boggles.

Getting back to the subject–The Astros need a manager who is young enough to relate to the players, but old enough to know how to command respect. Smart enough to know how to push the players’ buttons and wise enough to rarely do it.

That MLB Network gig looks pretty sweet. He should not be considered as a manager for the Astros or Phils, although I love him, he is far too honest and confrontational for today’s ballplayer.

NO WAY! He is too emoptional to put up with a 105 loss team. Hell, he is too emotional to put up with a 50 loss team!

My only concern or reservation is I like Bowa and I wouldn’t wish the Red Sox on anyone that was even remotely competent.
