The return of Big Mac
Yep, this has nothing to do with Cubs baseball or does it? As i remember, Mark McGuire was not what you called a good hitter but a guy who tried to club the ball every at bat. Not unlike Ryan Howard today. And now after he has been out of baseball for sometime, he is the Cardinals hitting coach??? Does this move make sense to anyone else besides maybe from a PR point of view? Or maybe Big Mac will teach every cardinal to become a dead pull hitter who hits .263 for their career. This seems like just a gimmick by LaRussa and the Cards to try and garner favor with their fan base after they did a cub-like performance in the postseason. An inexperienced hitting coach on a team that should contend for the central division next year. Might this be the best offseason news for cubs fans yet?
