Craig Biggio My Vote for the Angels Next Skipper

[HaloRed]

Bump the topic to wherever it needs to go, I don't know at this point.

 

I always admired him at that great gritty ballplayer, teammate in the dugout, that he leads by example, just the overall report and ambience to that setting. 

 

I'm hopeful he would accept to be the Angels next Manager if he'd be willing. 

 

P.S. Maybe Baggs might join in with him.

Did someone say gritty!?

[REDneck]

He's so gritty that he just chews on dirt.

Gritty seems to be a desired trait for our next manager. I guess people want to see a lineup made out in dirt,chalk, blood and tobacco spit.

Wasn't Nevin considered gritty?

Is it a package deal with his kid?

Yes! 

We get Bagwell in his prime if we hire him.

I’ll pass.  Grit may not work with this nimby pimby generation.

I agree - always liked this guy -- I also like the Milwaukee manager, Craig Counsell - for the same reasons.

let's go after these smart, gritty gamer type guys who played the game the way it should be played.

Bumping this thread to where it needs to go.

There was a catcher on those Astros teams that manages a bit. I believe the name is Ausmus?

Erstad!

I know, he doesn't want it. Smart man.

how do you know he doesn't want it?

[fan_since79]

I had forgotten that Erstad is no longer the coach at Nebraska. So I suppose he's available. I would interview him.

Yeah, number one on my list of desireable traits is berating the team while throwing bats in the shower.
