Bryan Ma.
Nice!

I thought for sure TLR was gonna try to steal Oquendo away from the Cardinals. phew!

I was worried too. Good thing deep playoff runs tend to prevent coaches from interviewing

I like Chip Hale. He was a runner up for the Mets managing job a few years ago.
Pei Kang
he should’ve gotten it instead of the guy currently at the helm…:(
AceRuby
I actually concur but what can you do… at least Collins seems to be turning it around somewhat now with getting better talent on the team.
Pei Kang
to some degree.

Seems like a good hire. But no matter what, we at least will be certain that Hale will be the best manager ever named “Chip”

I believe there was a baseball movie with a chimpanzee named Chip as the coach. Regardless, I have firm faith that Chip Hale can out coach any actor.

Not giving Chipper a lot of support here. After all, Dude Esterbrook was the best manager of all time named Dude and he was 2-8. Chip should be a good, solid addition though.

I thought for sure the D-Backs would hire Joe McEwing, but in recent days that became apparent it wouldn’t happen.

As long as McEwing stays in Chicago and finds a way to the manager position there
I Want My Bird
Bring back Upton/Eaton/Bauer, you may have something there.
Mike C. 2
Towers already burned those bridges.

And now if Chip Hale will add Tim Raines, J.T. Snow, and Josh Fogg to his coaching staff
connfyoozed .
Storm Davis might be available too.
Dock_Elvis
Who will ever forget Sleet Summers and his 95mph ephus!?
Steve Corbett
Oh, what the hey….add Bob “Hurricane” Hazle and Windy McCall. There. I’m done.
Dock_Elvis
I know…it just has to be said..ha. I’m still tickled that the Angels all time OF includes a Trout and a Salmon. Names are one of the small joys of baseball. Sammy Khalifa lives on
Tom 22
I hope he didn’t pick up any Habits from Jerry Manuel, but I always liked Hale when he was on our coaching staff. I always hoped he would succeed Terry Collins for us. Too bad.
Gumby65
Well, he does barely fit the former Dodger player requirement (barely).

So much for another Chip (Hale) and Chili (Davis) bowl giveaway at the Coliseum…
Dock_Elvis
I just walked around the Haight and North Beach this weekend…they are giving away bowls over there if you want to cross the bridge. Totally different type of bowl…gotta love SF

I was hoping for Jim Tracy, because I’m a Dodger fan.

Good hire, nice guy.
