Fomer Sox, Padre, National, Reds, Mets, etc. coaching on the Northside in the Hamlin Park Little League assoc, with a K wood and someone else you might know.

Good ozzie/kenny stories. Still confirming Kenny just a total pud.

Speaking of K, you're missing one in his name. One of South Suburban College's finest.

Don't forget Pirate. He had some big games with them, or at least as big a game as any of them got with the 2000s Pirates.

So who was the famous person you met?

He didn't really have a position. They kept running him out in CF after the Anderson experiment went awry. He didn't exactly look like Willie Mays out there.

Nah, he was let go for unrelated to baseball reasons, bigfan seems pretty plugged in ...thought he may have heard the same stuff from reliable sources.

Seen it, didnt need to hear it. What I heard is just additional.

People always think Kenny and Krause got bumped up as a reward? They got bumped up to a position of less interaction with others (investors mainly, but other GM's, agents, reporters, etc)

In each case, including Pax, not one got more money for an alleged promotion. So are they really promotions?

The biggest issue Jerry R has with running these teams is the investors, friends, families, etc. Constant requests, phone calls, complaints, favors, tickets, etc...on an ongoing basis. While he is never going to get rid of a GM because of investor complaints, he will give them a new position, so someone else can maybe resolve those issues better.

Even the media is just not as big of a pain in the ass, they mostly kiss his ass and if they dont he will ban them! lol

I simply cannot believe anyone would have the temerity to ask Jerry Reinsdorf to reciprocate a favor, well I never.
