I'm more worried about the contract Woody gave him hopefully it's nothing bad because this guy will get 3 yrs max to bring us to CWS

“Arizona had 737 hits this year with a team BA of .325…that’s 81 more hits than the next closest team”

Yes Please

i am very underwhelmed. I dont think a west coast lifer is going to do well here

unless woodward hired him only for his connection to the vegas area to try and get the next bryce harper and kris bryants of the future

The hell are you congratulating Woodward for?

He hired the 7th best coach in Omaha this year (8th best, if the NCST coach wins it all). Extremely mediocre and very disappointing compared to his previous hires.

No ties to the region, offense entirely reliant on an assistant who may not come.

I only ask because Johnson has a history as a hitting coach himself

We just hired our Dave Serrano. This sucks.

Only thing "dumb" here is celebrating this hire.

Could we have gotten Corbin? Probably not. But Vitello, Godwin, O'Connor would all have been easy and better hires.

Just very disappointing when we knew for months that PM was done this year.

Do we allow him to coach a few games first? Or should we demand his resignation now?

Don’t know much about him but 2 CWS in 6 years seems like he built a culture of winning. We all know you need 2 aces and luck to win in Omaha.

I think Yeskie is taking Johnson's old job at Zona.

was not LSU’s first choice, but I believe SW hired who he thought would help bring LSU back to Omaha to win national titles. Best of luck to you Mr. Johnson.
