I'm not sure I really like this.

He's never managed before, so it's definitely a wait and see thing, but he was Kirk Gibson's right hand man and Gibson ran Justin Upton out of town because he didn't play the same way that Kirk Gibson did. Which felt vaguely racist. I feel like Gibson is one of those guys that doesn't really embrace analytics because he played the game with his gut so that's how he manages. This worries me a bit just because I don't know Matt Williams' stance on things, so I can only really associate him with the regime he was coaching in.
