Some slammed me for saying Jose was considered a good leader and locker room presence! He is an improvement over what we've had in so many ways. It's this aspect of his character that Phil wanted and Fish needs. There has to be a brain on the floor and a communicator. This is part of what I was highlighting with my thread about Phil, Fish and Jose being a key component for changing the culture of this team. Jose is also an excellent man for Larkin to learn from.
