I’m a Cardinals fan and Lynn was a great workhorse for us years ago but I’m not sure this move really helps our terrible rotation. At least he can still eat innings, I guess.
I be more confident if yadi was still behind the plate or in the dugout. He really got a lot of potential out of the pitchers. I think this last season really showed that with us having the same bullpen but a different catcher and therefore different approach.
I could be wrong but I think he’s eyeing club manager, based on his work in Venezuela and the PR team. I’d take him as a pitching coach in a second though.

Totally agree. Yadi was basically another pitching coach behind the plate and knew each pitcher well. Contreras is just an okay catcher that can hit.
Personally, I think we’ll drop Marmol for Yadi as soon as he’s ready but that might be wishful thinking.
While I think he would be a fine manager, but I wonder if him working as a pitching coach may have a bigger impact on a daily basis.
