There's been no smoke coming from the FO's campfire as they search for JR's replacement. None of the guys interviewed have come back for a second round of palaver.
We're wondering if they're waiting for a couple of playoff coaches to finish their runs - somebodies like Tony Pena of the Yankees or Ron Wotus of the Giants? Just sayin'...
I think either of those guys would be as good a choice as we are likely to find at this point in time. Of the two, I'd rather have Pena because of his Pittsburgh ties and because of his extensive coaching and managerial experience. He'd also do well with what figures to be a significant influx of Latin players, and the Pirates as a team have a long and proud history in Latin America.
