The mad professor is back.
And by "MAD" I mean he's one crazy crazy dude. And by "Professor" I mean he's probably the smartest pitcher to ever play the game.
Yesterday afternoon the Dodgers announced that they have hired Hall of Famer Greg Maddux as an Special Assistant to the Dodgers’ President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman and the entire Baseball Operations Department. In other words, he'll be tasked with imparting whatever knowledge he has about the game - which I assure you is a lot. BTW, they also announced at the same time the hiring of recently retired slugger Raul Ibanez, and I'll have an additional post focused on him shortly.
