I guess Willie Randolph did know something when he turned down the Washington Nationals a few weeks back. Maybe he thought he still had a chance to land the skipper's job in Milwaukee. Well he didn't get that, but the Brewers did hire him to be the bench coach for manager Ken Macha. I think this is a great hire to get them both! However, they are still going to have to make up for the losses of Sabathia and Sheets provided neither re-sign. I don't think the Brewers 5 year $100 million to CC is going to lure him back. They need to be on the aggressive and go out and get some pitching to help Gallardo, Parra, Bush and Suppan. Cappy should be coming back as well, but you never know what you're going to get coming off that surgery.
On a side note, it appears the Cubs are in the running to get Jake Peavy. If that happens, it's lights out for the NL Central as with Zambrano, Harden and Peavy as the top 3, they'd be tough!!!
