Should Terry Pendelton get the Royals Coaching Job?

I think he should. He has been a great hitting coach for the Braves and I think it is time for him to step up into a managerial role.

You Agree?

Pendelton was always a leader in the Braves clubhouse and I believe he has managerial qualities. If not the Royals I believe he will get a shot with someone at some point in time.

nope.
i dont.

He should get a managerial job soon, but would hate to have him leave Braves organization. If he would stay another year in Atlanta, he might get manager job.

Yes I agree--cuz the Royals are ready to make a major move UP the standings and a guy like T.P. just might be the spark to set that team ablaze!!

I'm mixed about that... I like Pendleton, but I'm not sure if he would make a great manager. However, this is the Royals. He has paid his dues in Atlanta, so I guess he should get a shot.

NO , he should stay with the Braves, I am sure he will succeed Bobby Cox. The Braves organization is too good to let him go, I know he will make a great manager someday.

Well, Pendleton did spend part of his playing days as a Royal. He can try to turn the Royals around - however, they are the worst run team in the majors and will remain so until they get a new owner.

Partly in reference to Ski Dawg, Terry's too smart to play for that owner.
He's family, bro! Does he deserve a managerial position? Of course. Will he get one? Hopefully, after Bobby Cox isn't around (he'll probably have a heart attack arguing with McClellan or something). Then T.P. can manage the Braves for 20 years or so.
Braves in '08!

You make a great point, although he and Tony Pena seem to have a lot in common as far as their temperment and I thought Pena would be a perfect fit for the Royals. Unfortunately Royals owners prefer not to put a quality team on the field and go for contracting the good players that have come up the past decade or so. If Pena had had something to work with he might have made a great manager for a young team. It is obvious that the Royals organization is not dedicated to winning. They have put quite a few future stars on the field the past several years and let them get away for nothing. Quite a shame.
Cardinals 3rd base coach Jose Oquendo would also be a perfect fit for that team. He has unlimited knowledge of the game, is supercharged, a risk taker and aggressive. He knows how to relate to young players and can invoke boundless spirit.

Appendix: Word has it that when the new owners bought the team, they had to promise the city of K.C. that the Royals would not move unless they had x-number of consecutive losing seasons. There has been talk that ownership fancies moving the Royals to Little Rock or somewhere else.
Dont tell anyone I told you.

Why not a great player and knows the game
good selection

I think it should go to someone that played or has a connection to the organization.

TP would look good in the Cards organization again ;-)

I do agree he should be a manager in the Bigs somewhere!

No, I think he should stay with Atlanta. I would love to see him maybe get the job there some day whenever Bobby Cox is ready to retire.

he did retire with the royals as a player in 1998, he got his last hit off of steve karsay of the indians.

Yeah, I've heard he's a great coach. He probably deserves a head coach job.
