October 22, 201312 yr Have to think Mack Jenkins will be moved up to pitching coach. Big fan of Price for the record. I think he will be a very good fit for this job...
October 22, 201312 yr I was really hoping that management would go after and get a big name, experienced MLB manager and pay what they whatever amount needed to get him. Like they did with Dus.....oh, never mind... :walk:
October 22, 201312 yr Have to think Mack Jenkins will be moved up to pitching coach. Big fan of Price for the record. I think he will be a very good fit for this job... Think Riggleman will be his bench coach?
October 22, 201312 yr Notice how one of the traits Walt said the Reds were looking for was a "culture of accountability"?
October 22, 201312 yr Think Riggleman will be his bench coach? Not sure yet. I know he and Walt are very tight...
October 22, 201312 yr "Preparation. Effort. Energy. Three things that you should bring to the ballpark everyday." Will have to wait and see how things shake out, but I feel he's saying all the right things.
October 22, 201312 yr Think Riggleman will be his bench coach? Manny Acta is another name I know the Reds will be interested in.
October 22, 201312 yr Quote from Jocketty. "I have spent a lot of time with Bryan since the season ended, and I was convinced after the first meeting he is the right person to help us move this organization forward. We've all seen his work here with our pitching staff. He has proven himself to be an excellent communicator and leader and clearly is one of the most respected people not only in our clubhouse but in baseball in general."
October 23, 201312 yr Anyone else see Mike Leake's comments about Dusty with Lance? No. Care to elaborate? (Too lazy to try and track them down myself. :lol2:)
October 23, 201312 yr Author No. Care to elaborate? (Too lazy to try and track them down myself. :lol2:) I'm looking for it in print.
October 23, 201312 yr Author Obviously I never found it.... Basically said the Reds lacked structure and having everyone on the same page. Leake said there were some guys doing things their own way and going through the motions. It was hard for Dusty to discipline and yell at people because he wanted everyone to like him.
October 23, 201312 yr I think the chancess of Chapman being in the rotation went up tremendously with this hire. I agree. Bryan Price wanted Aroldis Chapman to be a starter and Dusty nixed it. I honestly don't know where Aroldis Chapman best serves the Reds. I think we will find out very early next season.
