This just wasn't the team for Lou. Lou is not a man made to teach young guys. Griffey, A-Rod, the Big Unit, etc, would have all been as great as they became without Lou as if they never encountered him. If you give Lou an undisciplined team of veterans (not "idiots" like us, I mean lazy, etc), he'll whip them into shape and make them play. That's what he can do. If you give him a veteran squad, he can make them work. If there is any man in the MLB who can take a big ego and annihilate it, but keep that guy productive, it's Lou Pinella.
So what I'm basically saying is that the Dodgers or Yankees will hire him....
