Piniella On McGwire
Written by wrigleyville

Lou Piniella is talking some sense about Mark McGwire, though he's probably wrong because he's giving fans and especially sportswriters the benefit of the doubt:

Piniella said he does not feel McGwire’s presence on the road will make it difficult for the Cardinals to concentrate on playing baseball.

“I don’t think it will be a distraction,” he said. “It would have been a distraction if he did not have his press conference. That would have been the topic all year long. Now that it’s old news, maybe when he shows up for spring training, the first week or so that topic will be revisited. But hopefully, they’ll leave him alone and let him do his job.”

I'm sure that with each new city fans and sportswriters will say: He's answered questions to my satisfaction. Or I've been made to feel complete because somebody else has booed him. Right.

I don't think it will be that big of a deal. I think Cubs fans will go for the gullet, but other than that I don't think anyone really cares about Big Mac or steroids that much anymore.

I mean the dude's a hitting coach. If he really needs to he can hide in the locker room hallway all game and it won't matter.
