Former Angels manager lauds the organization for hiring Kurt Suzuki

The Los Angeles Angels shocked the world by hiring Kurt Suzuki over Albert Pujols and Torii Hunter to be the team's next manager. They continued to shock the world, maybe not Angels fans though, by hiring Suzuki to just a one-year deal instead of a standard multi-year contract. Despite the negative presence that is Arte Moreno, Suzuki should be able to carve out some success and serious credentials as the team's manager. Everybody who has ever spent time around Suzuki says he is a bona fide winner and fantastic person (including current MLB managers in Stephen Vogt and Mark Kotsay), including a man who used to hold the title of Los Angeles Angels manager.
