Dick Pole named Reds' new Pitching Coach

[E.J.]

From Rotoworld:

 

Reds named Dick Pole pitching coach.

Pole was Dusty Baker's bench coach with the Cubs the last four seasons, but he's served as a pitching coach with five different teams during his lengthy career. It's not exactly an inspired pick for the Reds, but he'll probably get the job done.

 

Haha.

Let's hope that he doesn't give the shaft to Chicago by erecting a quality staff in Cincy.

Tough call between his name and Coco Crisp.

[Master Shake]

I get a laugh every time I hear Milton Bradley's name.

 

All time best sports name, though has to go to Dick Butkis.

Didn't Greg Maddux say that Dick Pole was the best pitching coach he's ever had?
