But if Oquendo is the replacement, I think Albert is fine. Do we think he's looking forward to joining Ozzie Guillen in Miami?
I'd think Albert would rather play for an Oquendo than a Guillen. I'm not sure why, but I get the impression Guillen's antics wouldn't impress Pujols that much.

Now all of those people calling for Tony's head can finally get what they were hoping for. Just be prepared that the next manager has about an equal of a chance of being much worse than being better than Tony.

One of those things that is a surprise but not shocking. We all knew it was a possibility.
