McCarver should be next, followed by Harrelson. Personally, I like Joe Morgan, though at times he does go on too long about elementary matters.
Jack Buck was good and even Harry Carey was tolerable (in his early years), but what we need is the next Dizzy Dean!

Harry Carey was an actor. Harry Caray was a drunken slob, who spent more time telling about who ate at his restaurant the previous night, than announcing the game. When I watched the Cubs games, I would turn down the volume, or if the game was on the other team's channel, I'd watch that one. Sometimes he didn't know who was at bat, or who the Cubs were playing. He was booted out of St. Louis for doing something no decent person would do. To see his statue in front of Wrigley field, makes me sick.
