Bell named Royals manager brings old school approach
Jose Lima lauds Buddy Bell as an old school leader who will speak plainly and push for accountability. Bell, 53, was hired to replace Tony Pena amid Kansas City's worst big league start at 13-37, with a youth-focused plan likely extending past 2007. Teammate Mark Teahen hopes a clear plan leads to on-field success. Eric Wedge notes the emotional move from Cleveland as Bell departs to manage Kansas City.
