Sweet to return to Louisville
In a interview before Monday's game, Louisville Bats manager Rick Sweet said that he is in fact returning to be the manager for the Louisville Bats in 2012.

Re: Sweet to return to Louisville
Of course, as was said in the courier journal today, that is if he does not receive a big league job offer. Heard that Ted Power plans to return as well. Smokey Garret will almost certainly return if he does not retire. This is all excellent news, the Bats have had an exceptionally stable coaching staff for any level, let alone a minor league team, and the results have been great!

Re: Sweet to return to Louisville
I'm heard a rumor that one of the three is not returning.

Re: Sweet to return to Louisville
Sweet would be an excellent bench coach at the major league level. He knows virtually all the younger guys in Cincinnati. Perhaps he moves on up?
Could Spier take over as hitting coach, with Sweet the heir apparent to Baker? I'd take that.

Re: Sweet to return to Louisville
If there are any changes to the staff, I hope the 3B coach is the guy to go. The Reds just make too many outs on the bases.

Good teams I've watched play for 50 years.
