Hendry Fired (p. 2)

[XZero771679666304]

I go out for a couple hours and come back to this? WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!

 

But I actually feel kind of bad for the guy on a personal level.

 

But mostly WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!

Oh, and it should go without saying but....

 

Andrew Friedman.

 

Get it done.

Steve Stone on WSCR making absolutely no sense equating old mediocre doctors and young hot shots with old baseball people and sabermetrics people.

 

But he apparently would prefer some younger "modern" guy who will surround himself with old guys who know what a 24 year old looks like in comparison to a 25 year old.

 

Has he brought up a slider, low and away? Because everything he says that isn't that is wrong.

 

I turned on CSN last night thinking it was sportsnet central, but it was a sox game and Stone said something about a slider low and away and I laughed then turned the TV off and went to bed.

Dump truck full of cash, IMO

Can someone please give an overview of the Ricketts press conference that's coming up when it's done? Curious to what he has to say.

Friedman is definitely tops on my list, as well. I don't know if it's possible to get him away from Tampa, but I'd love to see it happen.

STEVE STONE FOR GM RYNO FOR MANAGER DITKA FOR FIRST BASE

Ricketts

 

As of today Jim hendry stepping down as GM of Chicago Cubs.

 

First and foremost we didn't win enough games.

 

Team performance not where it should be.

 

Secondary goal is to win world series and we need fresh approach.

[Outshined_One]

I wonder if this was what the Ricketts announcement was going to be, or if there's still something in the offing.

Ricketts' voice is cracking

 

Respect for Hendry. great guy, will miss him

I am going to guess this is it.

"The search will be focused on candidates outside the organization."

 

:yahoo:

spoke with players in clubhouse.

 

spoke with most of their baseball people whom he thinks are really good, and highlighted Randy Bush.

And now for my big announcement, we're adding 2 bathrooms to the Captain Morgan Club.

[jersey cubs fan]

no timeline, no dates set

 

as fast as we can outside the organization.

will not comment on rumors or conversations and will be private process

 

 

 

 

 

 

(as a side note I might be naked right now)

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Ricketts says that club will not give updates on search process or comment on any rumors.

[jersey cubs fan]

new GM will report directly to Ricketts.

 

my job is to give him freedom to operate and all the support they need to bring a championship to Chicago.

If he leaves then getting rid of Hendry was not worth it.
