Pickoff Moves, Man Am I Bushed Edition
The danger is not that a particular class is unfit to govern. Every class is unfit to govern.-- Lord Acton
Under democracy, one party always devotes its chief energies to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule—and both commonly succeed, and are right.There now, wasn't that fun?-- H. L. Mencken

He threatened his wife, broke down a door to their Oregon home, spent a night in jail, and declared Chapter 7 bankruptcy at one point, among other highlights. Too bad there isn't a Dodger Blues analogue for the Snakes -- they'd have a field day with this stuff. The team apparently failed to do a background investigation on their new manager.

Mel Stottlemyre will not return in 2005. The new Yankees pitching coach will be AAA Columbus coach Neil Allen. This will come as good news for those who've called for his head previously.
