Astros Hire Mills as Mgr
Brad Mills Red Sox Bench coach, after Manny Acta turned down the job. Seems like a good hire.

Just glad to see an unrecycled manager given a chance.
Of course, baseball could claim that as a green initiative :

Brad's son Beau Mills, was the Cleveland Indians first round draft pick in the 2007 MLB Draft.
Mills became forever a part of major league history, when in 1983 he was Nolan Ryan's 3,509th career strikeout victim, lifting Ryan past Walter Johnson as all-time strikeout leader.
