You ever notice in sports the worst athletes end up becoming managers while the best are horrible talent evaluators more times than not >Well I personally never cared for Reynolds myself. But John Kruk is a paid analyst and no one respects what he has to say. Early this season he said in cold weather he would try and make solid contact so his hands wouldn't hurt as much. He gets paid to discuss baseball and thats what he has to say. Steve Phillips does the Sunday night game of the week and the fans that like him or respect his opinion are far and few between. And he was a GM but can't find a job with any team in baseball. He doesn't stay at ESPN because he doesn't want a job back in the bigs. Joe Morgan also does the Sunday night game of a week and a web site was created just to get him fired, firejoemorgan.com. No one respects a word he has to say and hes a hall of famer.

Kruks insight was he tried to make solid contact in cold weather. And I know plenty of people that don't watch ESPN anymore... internet and in real life
