I've heard a couple names mentioned 1)bench coach John McLaren and 2) Dusty Baker, Baker's contract is over with S.F. at the conclussion of the W.S.

I hate to see Lou go but I can't blame him for wanting to be closer to family. I think he was also pissed upper management made no attempt to improve the team down the stretch.

Thanks for the awesome memories Lou, you will be missed. frown
