Whacking Day

No, I don't. I just don't see a lot of mid-season moves from coaches on one team to the top spot on another, particularly to an intra-league rival, so I figured there's an institutional reason.

Wally Backman's South Georgia Peanuts have jumped to a 19-8 start in South Coast League. Call Wally.

]didn't Girardi refuse to interview for the Cubs' job last winter?

I don't remember that (doesn't mean it's not true - but I think they had their eyes set on Lou all along).

He did turn down the Nationals.

[metirish]

For a one year manager Girardi sure is picky ,must be upsetting to others looking to get back in the game that he has turned down two jobs so far.

[Guest sharpie]

Yes, Nationals, not Cubs. Still, turning down 2 jobs. Maybe he doesn't want to live in the mid-Atlantic region.
