Re: Walt Jocketty OUT in St. Louis
I wonder how how dedicated Castellini is to keeping Wayne around...
I hope they have secret talks with Jocketty underway right now. I'd give my left thumb for the Reds to hire him. Even if it meant having to deal with Tony LaRussa as the manager.

Re: Walt Jocketty OUT in St. Louis
IF Jocketty comes, does LaRussa follow?

Re: Walt Jocketty OUT in St. Louis
Does Dave Duncan make up for the the way the farm system will be handled....theoretically. I could be wrong, but isn't Jocketty's biggest problem the way he handles prospects?
Its late, I could be off base.

For whatever reason, I almost see LaRussa wanting to be a GM/Manager, so he can "buy his own groceries" to steal a phrase from Bill Parcells. Could be an interesting situation. |

Re: Walt Jocketty OUT in St. Louis
Jocketty, old school, replaced by Luhnow, new school. Do folks really want the old school guy here?
