Re: Manny Acta Named Manager Of Indians
Sizemore and Hafner will be next to be dealt out of town. All superstars we have will be gone. Dolan doesn't like spending money, it seems...
(And I like how he says "we're building for the future"......what's that, Dolan? 2030????)Comment

I've spent a couple years watching him on the Nats broadcast. The Tribe will only get worse under him.http://flotn.blogspot.com

Why would a last place team hire a manager who made a last place team worse?Originally posted by VP Richard M. NixonI always remember that whatever I have done in the past, or may do in the future, Duke University is responsible one way or the other.

Lucky for Hafner he's not a superstar. Sizemore on the other hand will probably be dealt when it comes time for a new contract.Comment

Re: Manny Acta Named Manager Of Indians
As far as Manny Acta, simple logic would say that he was a poor choice for a manager. But when do Cleveland teams ever let Logic get in the way of a cheap deal??Comment

Re: Cleveland Indians Managerial Opening Discussion
He wasn't the sole reason. But he was a reason. Like I said before on this forum, no one expected the Nats to finish above last & they still managed to underacheive w/him as manager.

Think about that for a bit.

I actually wanted Cito Gaston when he was available before. But the FO was happy with Wedgie.Comment

Re: Manny Acta Named Manager Of Indians
I've often wondered how Cito would've done in a place other then Toronto. He was a 50/50 shot from getting the Chicago job as it came down to him and Ozzie. I think the main reason Ozzie was hired was due to Reinsdorf being more familiar and comfortable with Ozzie being the manager.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club
