I'm really liking what I see and hear from Coach Wash. Can't explain why but I'm really glad he is the Angels' manager now and I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do with this team. Still feel there's a lot of potential that has yet to be tapped in this organization. I'm hopeful that Ron Washington can tap into it and we can become successful sooner than we think.

You could say that's the next hurdle to clear when filling out his staff.

Wish they could find some way to lure Mike Maddux away from the Rangers, but I doubt that happens. 

You take that back!

In all seriousness, I was as excited about having Mike back in Texas as I was about CY hiring Bochey.

Throughout Rangers history, the biggest challenge we faced was pitching...always pitching. Yeah, we might have had a good one or two here and there, but that only gets you so far. 

Fact is, after STL,  he was ready to retire, but when the likes of Chris Young and Bruce Bochey come knocking on your door, how could anyone not want to join those legends?

 

Good article

Hiring all the Washington’s is as good a strategy as any.

I’m sure there’s a bunch of rational responses in that thread.

I made the mistake of clicking on the tweet and seeing some replies.

It’s not woke it’s just not being complete pieces of shit.

I know, Im just teasing you for all your impending defenses of the coaching staff in 2024.

There isn't much of a middle ground anymore when it comes to race or sexuality.

Well I can promise you that if Porter or Washington or Young or other Washington suck it will have nothing to do with them being black.

I like the idea of hiring someone that has worked with Brent STrom

I have no recollection of him pitching for the Angels.  After checking on Baseball Reference, I now know why I don't remember him...

I do like his connection to Strom!

I’ll take it as encouraging, as opposed to Wash hiring some old guard pitching coach.
