Dodger fans, any thoughts on the Grady Little hiring?

I'll throw in my cents. I think it's an absolutely perfect fit for LA and for the Dodgers right now: hiring a manager who was basically fired because he went against statistics and went with his gut instinct instead.

Come to think of it, that's probably the line that sealed the deal for Little when he was interviewed by Dodgers CEO Bill Plaschke.

Dodgers CEO Bill Plaschke: Can you talk about your firing as Red Sox manager?

Little: Well, I was fired because I went against statistics and with my gut instinct instead.

Dodgers CEO Bill Plaschke: You had me at hello. Welcome aboard, Grady.
