correct.

So if it does, Then you might need to give them the Jeanius label.

Can we assume that your defintion of "one and out" includes playing a 5 game series against the Cardinals in the NLDS?

Hate to break it to you,but 3 seasons of crap (and a good possibility of a 4th) has already proved me correct. Maybe you have a stronger stomach than I do for watching this stuff. The 3rd season though has shown a glimmer of hope. Of course,Theo blames the hitting coach on the failures of Baez & Alcantara at the plate since he can't fire another manager stuck with lousy players. It will be an interesting off season this year.

If they win the series at some point in the next few years your point is both irrelevant and clearly wrong. Otherwise, it's the ol' 'pickleable produce poke' for Tommy boy.

He's risking having a lifetime of Grobbers if he tanks one more season.

Tanks? Yer velcum, bubby ...

I do not like Tom Ricketts. I do not like him one bit.


Id be interested in Epstein and Hoyer's opinion of this letter. I know they've said some stupid stuff about long term development but I dont think they've ever patted themselves on the back quite like that.

correct, eventually it can work, see the Royals.

and if Ricketts is to be believed (probably not) they will add spending to go with the youth movement to sustain success


Ill believe it when I see it. I think they'll keep coming up with reasons not to spend

suffice to say this is why "the plan" includes some sort of frequent buyer's punchcard @ starbucks. something tells me you get your coffee @ mcdonalds for the 1 time per season you're not drinking folgers instant coffee @home, eh JP?
