Posted November 14, 201113 yr SI_JonHeyman Jon Heyman cardinals announce mike matheny got the managing job. nice call. respected by everyone.
November 14, 201113 yr Zero managing or full-time coaching experience at any level and has been a roving instructor for the Cards for the last 4 years. I'm not sure I'd call that a nice call, Heyman.
November 14, 201113 yr Yeah, I'm with Rab. Being "respected" doesn't mean he manages well, especially with next to zero experience.
November 14, 201113 yr The only way you could have less experience and still be a managerial candidate is... well, to be Robin Ventura. What the hell is going on in the Midwest?
November 14, 201113 yr I think the hirings of Matheny and Ventura are slaps in the faces to all of the guys who have been laboring away in minor league systems waiting for a chance. You can't tell me that Matheny and Ventura are better suited for the job.
November 14, 201113 yr Didn't Pujols want that other guy as manager? EDIT: Sorry for making that as vague as possible. I mean Oquendo.
