Fear of Piniella

[KurtEvans]

For Goat Riders, I contacted the bloggers who follow teams that guys like Piniella, Valentine, and Johnson have managed to get their take on things. I just posted the Piniella comments today and it's really not pretty.

 

Lou is apparently an a-hole who will keep his team in line, which is fine. But he doesn't have use for drawing walks, he has no patience for rookies, he'll blame everybody but himself, and he's attached to certain coaches despite their inadequacies.

 

Sound like someone we know?
