Now that Maddux is gone, even though yesterday I said I wanted him to stay as PC, I'm not overly upset about the loss. I think he was well hyped and even with Gio having such a great year, I'm wondering if maybe Maddux is a good PC but not someone special. He has worked with great pitchers and gotten great results, but I can't remember a guy he turned from a dumpster fire into a reliable commodity. I even gave White Sox fans crap about Don Cooper, but I think Cooper and someone like Ray Searage in Pitt has a better track record making tweaks to pitchers that can really unlock their potential.
