@colinwilhelm @bkamisar with Doc Gooden, Straw, Carter, Hernandez, et al. Baker's a three-time MOY and oversaw bad teams getting great.
@colinwilhelm @bkamisar plus, I watched Johnson fail to manage two extremely talented teams in Bal and DC.
@jonallendc @colinwilhelm That's definitely true. Not poo-pooing the hire as much as I'm just laughing at the headline in 3 day retrospect
@bkamisar @jonallendc @colinwilhelm Baker also knows how to manage a superstar
@Eddie_Dynamite @bkamisar @jonallendc Dusty Baker's career winning percentage: .526 (http://www.baseball-reference.com/managers/bakerdu01.shtml …)
@colinwilhelm @Eddie_Dynamite @bkamisar with the post-strike Giants and the Cubs for most of that time.
@jonallendc @Eddie_Dynamite @bkamisar There's a reason Dusty Baker wasn't in high demand and said yes to team that just lowballed Bud Black.
@colinwilhelm @Eddie_Dynamite @bkamisar was it the 187 wins in his final two seasons?
@jonallendc @Eddie_Dynamite @bkamisar More likely the ruined pitchers' careers and playoff flameouts.
