Title: Padres Fans Prepare to Cry
TheHugeUnit - November 2, 2006 04:52 AM (GMT)
The Padres have scheduled an interview with Dusty Baker on Monday.
Baker hardly seems like a fit for the Padres, who appeared to be going for someone they could mold. They were also looking to find someone cheaper than Bruce Bochy, and Baker is coming off a four-year, $14 million contract with the Cubs. Expect them to go in a different direction.

Why the Dusty bashing? I like that part of the reason he left the Giants was because he didn't like giving Bonds "special" treatment....and that he did the same with Sosa when he joined the Cubs.

Dusty ruined Kerry Wood and Mark Prior, I beleive in 2002 or 2003 they lead 1-2 in most pitches thrown, thats with Wood missing about 3 weeks due to another injury.
thanks to DustyTheJoke for the info.
If he got a hold of the padres, Peavy and Young would be the new Wood and Prior.

Theres no way they'll make him their new manager... their ownership and Kevin Towers are way to smart to hire such a pathetic manager.

nothing wrong with baker
he had the hardest job possible last season
3/5 of his rotation were injured
then another member of it was traded
Lee was never healthy, Pierre had an atrocious start to the year
none of it could have been prevented by him
he's a good man manager and the one thing you want in ur clubhouse is happy players who are motivated

Give Dusty another chance, he could have a fluke season managing or something.
