Pickoff Moves

Rumordom And Grady Little's Job Security

Last week, Buster Olney cited unnamed partisans in suggesting that the Dodgers had "a developing opportunity" for Joe Girardi — which, as Ken Gurnick at dodgers.com pointed out, could simply mean he'll become a coach now that there are openings. That story is likely dead now that the Yankees have offered Girardi their managerial job and all the headaches associated with it. Supposedly, Girardi's accepted, and so there goes that possibility.

As with Jon, my inclination is to say none of this really affects the Dodgers until there's an official announcement, which is why I'm taking this New York Post article that suggests the Dodgers are after Joe Torre with all the suspicion it deserves. (Via BTF.)

A-Rod, Best Player In Baseball?

Well, most likely, anyway. What's surprising is how far he isn't above the comparable players. The cost? Only <your team goes here>'s "heart and soul", according to reliable heart-and-soul-monger Buster Olney. I haven't quoted him in ages. Gotta go take a shower now.

Are you showering to rid yourself of Olney, or A-Rod?
 
Olney, though I think I might throw up in my mouth a bit if I ever saw A-Rod in the colors of any team I root for.
