I hope they give him a contract as well. Nothing like a knee jerk reaction. I am not sure this guy is that good. I'm not sure it really matters past getting rid of the poisonous atmosphere that Matheny seemingly fostered. That said, if there was a chance they'd hire someone actively bad like Dusty or something, I would've liked that. My point is that they are now playing to their potential overall for the season. Matheny was a dolt, but teams have good runs at some point in the year. The recent month doesn't mean the Cardinals issues are fixed. The Reds and Pirates have had nice runs this year. The Mets started the season on fire. Making an organization decision over one month of baseball seems to be a bad decision, in my opinion.
