I saw that several wanted Espada over Kapler and I didn't know enough about either of them to pick one over the other. But after reading quotes from press conference, sounds like Kapler is a good guy. Talked to Bochy for advice and believes he learned a lot to be effective in his second opportunity as a manager.
Of course saying all the right things like great team, ballpark, many places and restaurants to visit, and very diverse city. We'll see if he lasts longer than two years this time.
No one knows anything. Its mostly hyperbole.
Fact is, Kapler was Farhan's guy from the beginning.
It's someone he can control and has complete leverage over. So when it comes to making roster decisions, Farhan will get his way more likely than not.
I also believe that Farhan believes in this guys ability to foster relationships and develop players. That's what important right now.
