WOW.


Guess for me, that point of view depends on just how unhappy and devisive Walt has become over the past year. If his dissatisfaction with the budget, and his disillusionment with the whole Luhnow thing, have become as festering as these things sometimes get in any workplace, it was time to go.

Holy smoke. I can't imagine this being a positive thing, on any level.

It's incredibly positive. We have an interview with the Cardinals GM!


Let's see if he finds himself suddenly overbooked . . .


Yeah, I'm thinking that we may not be getting that interview.

Well it's on the books so he'd better not big time us or perhaps a banner will have to be flown during ST.

But they're making it sound like they dismissed Walt, not that Walt quit. Or am I misinterpreting your statements?

I can see both sides, skmsw is right about his past three years have been weak. But he did accomplish a lot and it seems a bit ungrateful.
