That's Felipe, as manager. A good choice given the Giants team makeup. Alou is a tough man who commands the respect of all his players. Those of you who remember the BBTN Online chats from last year know that I don't think he's as great a manager as people make him out to be. Despite having some talent, he was never able to accomplish what the Twins did last year, for example. I think with the loss of Kent, the Giants will have a hard time getting back to the playoffs next year. This is a team that will be good but not great, so it's a perfect opportunity for Alou to show that he can make a difference in the W-L record of his charges.
