[Brazelton] Popeye Zim

I know, people don't like the Brazleton tag, but Don Zimmer passed away today.

He was a great, underrated and iconic figure as a coach and manager in baseball. I also believe he may be one of the last members of the Brooklyn Dodgers that was still around.

One of the last true characters of baseball. Unfortunately, most people are gonna remember him for being taken down during a bench clearing brawl when he was with the Yankees. He's always been a coach / manager since I can remember. Hard to believe he was once a player.

Man, when we lose Yogi Berra, what are we gonna do then?
