It doesn't, but assuming he's a bad 1st base coach because he was a bad GM is lazy. He may well be a terrible 1st base coach, but we really don't have any way to know yet. Of course, given his name and history, I doubt he has much chance of ever being anything but vilified. Thankfully, he's not likely to be in a position to make any decisions that can easily be attributable to him, so the opportunities for jumping on him should be limited.
