The only thing that is good about this news to me is that Jon might be
spending more time doing Giants games, which would be great news. If he
winds up doing ESPN radio games, that would be horrible news, because then I
would get to hear him even less. I know this is  controversial opinion, but
I strongly believe Miller to be the best play by play man in baseball. Over
the last 8 years I have travelled to about half of the ball parks in the
major leagues, and listened to their local announcers. There are some good
ones (and a lot of really bad ones). None as good as Jon (and yes, that
includes the Dodger play by play man).

I enjoy Joe Morgan too, but I am more inclined to recognize that as an
acquired taste.

I actually like Orel Hershiser's work (and that is a lot for this old
Dodger-hater to admit). I really hope they do not add Bobby Valentine. John
Smoltz was really good on TBS this year.
