Can he write down the names of the best players he has on the lineup card? If so he'd be a fine manager.

A good manager is one that can convince the media he is a good manager. He seems like a pretty good BS artist, but I don't know if he could handle the constant barrage from the media. Dude seems like he could snap at any minute.

Probably not a bad idea since he handles the toughest part the pitching. The bench and hitting coaches can help the rest. Sure why not?

Seems like it?Have you ever heard him? He has snapped about 5 times and the media would destroy him, which he would never be able to handle. It would be a disaster.

Some of the best managers in history have been functioning alcoholics.

So yes.

Agreed. No way he can handle the media.

Probably wouldn't be a bad choice but if he wanted to manage he would have already been the manager.
