John Smolts to be the skipper?

Question

If Bobby retires, Smoltzy for the job? Just hope he does not fight with Chipper all the time.

Answer 1

No way can I see Glavine as a GM. Smoltz as a manager, though, yes, that would be great and he'd be a good one.

Answer 2

Being a great player does not qualify someone to be a GM or field manager. Frank Robinson is a HOFer but had a .475 winning percentage as a manager.

Earl Weaver, Robby's manager in Baltimore, never played at the major league level but had a .583 win percentage and managed the O's a World Series title.

In addition, I'm not aware of Smoltz's desire to manage. The last I heard he planned on coming back to play next year.

Answer 3

John--Skipper?

Dennis--Hopper?

Blade--Runner?

Wood--Chipper..still hang around?

Free--agent?

Answer 4

That would be great

Answer 5

With Maddux's brilliant baseball mind, why would you want him as your pitching coach instead of your manager or GM?

Answer 6

that will never happen

Answer 7
