Default Bochy's Option Picked Up

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1737625

Looks like he's going to be managing the Pads for the next two seasons. Good for him and the Padres - they realize their record has nothing to do with Bochy.

It also puts some pressure on him to win in the next two seasons, right when they should be ready to contend. The NL West is theirs for the taking in the next couple of seasons should their pitching hold up!

You know, Smed, normally I would give kudos to the Padres brass for this but every game I watched last year involving the Padres, Bochy screwed it up.

In what way Boomer? Any examples? I'm asking because I don't know. I always liked him - but, have never watched him manage a full game outside the 1998 WS.

I've been going to games since August 8, 1973....and on August 22, 2004, finally, a foul ball came my way. I had to reach for it, and it deflected off the tip of my right index finger. Shoot, if I was only 4 inches taller!

Have you read The Baseball Same Game?

Tony Gwynn says he's the best manager he played for...that's good enough for me.
