What do you think about this new manager the Nats are to hire on tuesday. He came from the Mets. (Manny Acta) Is he any good?

apparently he's won the Caribbean World Series and his Dominican team finished 4th in the World Baseball Classic last year...I wouldn't have picked him, but none of the managers I would've picked wanted the job...I'd say he's a fine choice.

The Nationals have a lot of problems that a manager alone cannot solve, at least currently. They have some good young players and if they can keep Soriano, or another slugger, and fill in a pitcher or two, they can at least be competitive as they were in 2005. That is more on the GM than the manager.

he could turn out to be a real good manager now it's up to the ownership of the washington nationals to spend some money to acquire some talent

Well, he did manage the Yankees to three straight World Series titles in the eighties, so I like him.

Even if he is - and who knows, this is his first managerial job in the majors- without the talent, the Nationals are still just another last-place team. And that's probably what they'll be.

I don't like it one bit. I think they should have gotten somebody the
fans of Washington were familiar with like Frank Howard
