As first reported by Water Cooler Talk: Joe Girardi is coming to Philly

Yesterday on this very blog, I told the world who the next manager was going to be wearing the red pinstripes. And just as I said the national media is scared to give WCT the credit we deserve!

Besides that point this is a great hire for the Phillies. Joe knows what he is doing, can manage superstars, and HE ISN’T DUSTY BAKER!

Just like getting his man Bryce Harper this past off season, John Middleton got his manager in Girardi.

Now go and get Gerrit Cole!
