Baker just isn't good with words. A lot of the stuff he says actually isn't that bad if you don't take it word for word. Players aren't nearly as aggressive as they once were. Almost every manager would rather the middle of their lineup put the ball in play especially with RISP. He is obviously an old school manager/player but he gets a lot more crap then he deserves as far as I'm concerned. People constantly are bringing up Prior and Wood as examples of how bad a manager he is. Look at Santana's workload over the past few seasons? That is just what you do with your aces. Wood had arm problems before and everyone knew Prior had been abused in college. Those 2 would have blown out their arms no matter who was managing...I wouldn't hire Baker to run my team but you can do worse. The fact that he is such a good player's manager alone should give him some points. That is just my opinion of course.
