Assuming he doesn't end up in prison, I think hiring him as a hitting coach is a good idea.

Yeah, I think he'd make a great hitting coach.
That said, this year's Giants are a lot more fun to watch - no real "stars" except for some of the pitchers, just a great cast of fun, slightly nutty, hard working players.
And it's working for them.

But he always had the skills and brains to be a great hitter (and was a great hitter). He should make a good hitting coach.

But he didn't treat the members of the media kindly because of his personal disdain for the media. In turn, they paint him in the most negative light possible.
I'm no baseball aficionado, so of course I could be wrong. Eh, I probably am....
