Ron Guidry

[WharfRat]

Now that the Yanks seem to have targeted him as Mel's replacement, anyone have any insight as to what kind of pitching coach he would make if hired? Obviously a very talented player in his day, but his coaching resume is about as thin as it gets. I read somewhere that Torre has endorsed Guidry, which gives me some confidence in the choice, since Torre wouldn't do that lightly, I think. But I really don't know much about Guidry beyond his on-field accomplshments.

Me neither.

He's probably my choice, but thats just because of his career and the fact that it'd keep one of those Tampa jerkoffs from ruining the staff even further.
