Jose Cruz No Longer a Coach

I don’t understand why you think this doesn’t bode well for Berkman, Oswalt, etc. I had a feeling that Cruz would be let go, but I would have expected it to happen after a new manager was picked. I think if you are picking a new manager, particularly one from outside the organization, you should give him the opportunity to pick his whole staff.

No Cruz? This is a slap in the face.

Interesting…

This is a bone-headed move. I was a Wade defender until now. Isn’t it nice to have a spanish speaking coach who knows the organization and the players? Ridiculous. I mean, if the guy was 75 and drooling, that would be one thing.

When I figure out what Jose Cruz did, I’m going to tell you why he was fired.

“C’mon Justice. You’re the reporter. It’s your job to find out what Cruz did. If you can’t find that out then maybe you’re just a celebrity reporter.

Maybe the Chron can offer you a different position in the organization since your sports reporting is lacking."

“What are you talking about? His butt-pat was legendary and no one could point down to second base like Cheo. Expect batters to run directly across the field to third without his invaluable instruction.”
-Joshua

“Maybe Cheo can come out of player retirement and do some starting pitching for us. See… there could be a silver lining for us all here…”
-Lane

“I constantly heard about players, such as Bourn and anyone who played left field with the wall saying that Cheo was a huge help in helping them with reading the ball in this ballpark and he would work with them before the game to practice.”
-Robb

“no cheo…who will high-five/fist-bump the few players that actually make it to first base…i’m crushed…”
-Possum

“This is scary, very scary—I actually agree with you. I must be coming down with something…”
-DryCreek

On second thought, yes you could, and you wouldn’t have to pay me much (the food and drinks are free, right?)
