That quote sounds like he's dying. I don't think Terry Francona is dying though.

Yeah it's been a bit of an open secret for a couple weeks that Tito's ready to hang it up. Wonder who'll steer the Guardians after he leaves. I know there's rumblings of Alomar Jr. but I have no idea how he'd do running the show.

If it were even 15 years ago he'd just be trying to play through it and putting up a .170/.245/.290 while the New York press flay him for being Not A True Yankee.

So, progress is nice, I guess.

He’s been a coach since 2009, so he’s certainly familiar with the org. No idea what kind of advanced metrics the front office uses to evaluate people skills though.

There’s an article up on the Athletic about the Angels’ salary dump: https://theathletic.com/4827041/2023/09/01/mlb-waivers-reds-angels-guardians

They put a quarter of the roster on waivers so Moreno wouldn’t have to pay the :spengbab: LuXuRy TaX, it leaked to the public, Mike Nevin learned at the same time as the players, and nobody had any clue what was going on. Hell, the players weren’t even sure what the process was anymore.

Makes me think about how everyone thought Martinez would take over for Maddon in TB, and then didn't. Francona's been in Cleveland for a decade so I can see them going in a different direction.

So the Rangers decided to throw Eovaldi with no rehab starts and well it's the Rangers pen in the second. Surprised they didn't just send a position player out there.

In 2017 the Dodgers were 91-36 on August 25th, then went 5-20 including an 11-game losing streak, before closing out the season with an 8-2 stretch.

They went on to win the World Series that October so everything worked out in the end, don’t worry.
