Better coaches to add FIRE?

[Flag Man]

Jack has almost recklessly played with the line-up. Don't agree with him but can't blame him.

Maybe some new "coaching" in-put would be helpful but not reckless.

Cox and Robinson have been subject to justifiable criticism of late.

Cox makes bad calls and Robinson (IMO) has done more damage than good.

 

Why not Lenny Harris and/or Mike Mordecai as 3B coach and Hitting coach?

From my distance, I prefer Mordy at 3rd and Lenny for hitting.

Wouldn't that free-up two Roster spots?

 

Both are destined for coaching (Mordy for Managing). Neither is critical to the Team as a player right now.

 

The spot-light, as usual, is on Jack. Moving Choi to dramatic new places in the line-up or sponsoring a creative Frequent-Flyer plan with the Farm will not deflect the glaring light.

 

Loyalty is nice, and valued. But, the old "Trader Jack" should take a better look at his coaching family.

Interesting idea - and it is certain that Mordy will definetly go into coaching. Lenny, I dont know anything about his coaching plans - if he has any. But I agree that would be something to do with them. Especially Harris who is not doing much at all other than taking up a roster spot right now.

[Hotcorner]

Mordy as hitting coach.

 

yep, that should do it. :confused

 

certainly don't want a guy with any experience as a hitting coach...

[FreshFish]

The players must agree with it. But I like the idea a lot.

 

I think Mordi will be a terrific coach

[butchy]

Mordi will be a GREAT coach one day in the "minor" leagues.

[Hollyberry]

The players must agree with it. But I like the idea a lot.

 

I think Mordi will be a terrific coach

If he is a 3rd base coach I hope the players don't run over him! He's kinda little

[ChoitotheWorld]

I always thought Lenny would make a good 3rd base coach for the fish, he can be like Ozzy was and not an idiot like Cox.

[Izzie]

I miss Ozzy...

 

But yeah, it's an interesting idea but Jack and Co probably wouldn't think of it.

[legacyofCangelosi]

I rather have mordy as a utility infielder than a 3B coach

[Miami 305]

modecai has at least contributed to the team a little...has not done bad at all....but harris get rid of him

[Mets_bs]

Lenny Harris is a great guy and a hell of a leader. Whenever he decides to call it quits he will make an excellent coach.

[Guest Juanky]

Agreed

[Beinfest4Prez]

What Mets_bs said is true. He always came through in the clutch last year and how do you thimk JP and Trelle would respond to his release?
