    Dave Miley hired as Columbus manager

    COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Former Reds manager Dave Miley was hired as skipper of the New York Yankees' Triple-A affiliate in Columbus.

    The Clippers announced the hiring Tuesday, and named Miley's coaching staff. Neil Allen, who spent last season as the Yankees' bullpen coach, will be the Clippers' pitching coach. Kevin Long will return as the team's hitting coach, and Frank Howard will also be back as the Clippers' outfielders/first-base coach.

    Miley replaces Bucky Dent, who was hired as bench coach of the Reds on Nov. 4.

    I wonder what's going to happen with Gil Patterson, who was the Columbus pitching coach last season?

    No idea, but Neil Allen is back with Columbus, so Patterson is gonna have to find a new home

    How about making Patterson the Yankee Bull Pen Coach, Kerrigan the Yankee Pitching Coach & Guidry the Joe's Buddy Coach?

    You know now that Guidry hasn't seemed to draw BJ Ryan to the Yankees and all.
    If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.

    Hate to lose someone like Gil, he seemed to squeeze the most out of the talent he's given.

    The Yankees should fire Connors and replace him with Patterson.

    I don't think Guidry was hired to draw BJ Ryan. That seemed to be discussed only on this board and in certain parts of the media. If they cared about what Ryan thought, they wouldn't have hired Mazzilli.

    I don't think Patterson would want to hang out at the track with George. That seems to be one of Connors's main job descriptions.

    Connors seems to be out of the loop and has had recent health problems. I don’t know how much of a job he has left. Plus, there is no Mel for him to bash to George. He tried it with Kerrigan and was told to shutup.

    If the Yankees have a “pitching guru” it is Nardi Contreras and not Billy Connors.
