A former Brewer has been named the St. Louis Cardinals new manager for the 2012 season. Mike Matheny, who played in Milwaukee from 1994-1998, will replace Tony La Russa as the World Series champs head-man as they attempt to defend their title.
The selection has some skeptics a bit confused, seeing as Matheny has no coaching experience at all in the majors. Others have pointed to the star catcher's stellar thirteen year career in the big leagues in which he became one of only three catchers to play over 100 games without an error.
Matheny also played for St. Louis in the early 2000s. With them he won three golden-gloves before being traded to the Giants.
