Remember Phil Hiatt? Led the minors in home runs a couple years back while playing AAA ball in the Dodger organization?
Hiatt is still plying his trade, now with the Cubs - and he's talking to fellow blogger Christian Ruzich, aka The Cub Reporter, about life as a latter-day Crash Davis. At one point, Hiatt tells CR that Jim Tracy is "the kind of manager you want."
