One day Jon will get bought out, but instead of paying the rest of his $2 mil contract, the Astros will pay him $100k a year for 50 years just so he can stay on the payroll.
Considering the obstacles he's had to overcome (even if self-imposed), his experiences would likely be helpful from a coach. As a worst case, the other coaches could point at him and use him as an example of what not to do.
I absolutely think he could be an asset as a special assistant in Florida working with the teenagers/1st year college guys.
This is really something none of us can comment on. We don’t know the man. A mis-step in your past doesn’t automatically mean you’re more suited to coaching college or HS kids than professional players. That’s silly.
What? C'mon man. I was just asking what skills he possesses that would make him a potential coaching candidate, in response to someone else bringing up that topic.
Your rhetorical question about his coaching skills was really just a vehicle for your dig at Big Jon.
No, of course not. No need to go extreme. I clearly never said you were the only one, don’t debate like a woman. However, it is the underlying subject of the vast majority of your Singleton related comments. It really is all you’ve ever had to say about the guy, other than your initial, more direct opinion, that he isn’t a major league caliber hitter.
