Neel on Torre

Great piece from Eric Neel of ESPN.com on Joe Torre that gives you an idea of the presence the guy has, and how it can affect any space he occupies.  Putting him in the dugout hardly guarantees a title, and no doubt once the season starts fans will learn to find fault with him as they would any manager, but the fact remains, Joe Torre simply isn't just any manager. 

It's not short, but definitely worth a read.

BK,

You write that Eric Neel's article about Joe Torre, "Isn't short, but definitely worth a read". Just what are you saying about us? Are you implying that our attention span is the length of a Loaiaza outing or a Pierre throw?
