While it does seem kinda obvious now, nobody really stated it as a reason Robin was hired as manager.

Kenny gets to play exactly who he wants. Maybe even a game by game basis, including lineups.

No, I didn't just have some deep thoughts about this, but was bombarded with Chuck Garfien tweets as he is obviousely having a sit down with Kenny and is sending out the comments regarding who will be playing what positions, batting where and starting? Now I always thought the manager was the guy who did that stuff?

All kinda makes sense now.

Suggestion for audio person (that's Mr. Hubble, right?) for when we see a shot of Kenny in his box....."Master of Puppets" by Metallica.

Wasnt he a Low A guy at age 23?

I would assume though if he doesnt get better, Kenny would still call him up for a couple of AB's before he quit the game.

Which I would think would actually be a cool thing to do as his dad, especially if they are out of the running.

Yes, it would be total nepotism and the Guillen family would tweet about it for 2 weeks straight,

but might be the coolest thing I have seen kenny do.
