No more memes. I've given it enough thought to melt my brain and maybe Clint Hurdle is an option. The guy has years of experience, he's done at least okay in the playoffs (an NL pennant after all) and has not been out long. His work with the Pirates is a little underrated imo. I don't if he is the best choice but I know he's not gonna crap himself having that job and make it worse.
I can't say for certain he'd get a World Series winner out of them as soon as next year but if the front office plays next season right and they stay healthy the idea won't be unrealistic in the very near future
Again... Maybe
