I can't respond to all these replies at once, did I stir up the hornets nest with people or what? It's like you're hunters, ready to fire, just WAITING and PRAYING for someone optomistic to come along, so you can destroy them as quickly and as effeciently as possible. Let me ask you this, what have the Cardinals done this offseason?

Some people like to hurl blanket insults about to make their points. I can't stand it either. Hey, we're only talking about baseball here. It's up to you if you take things personally.

Who appoints the manager? Exactly, you can't blame Dusty for the way things have gone, without looking at why is there. If Hendry had fired Dusty after the season, I would not have the same feeling I have towards in right now. I'm NOT getting into this argument, but I will say that while Baker was hardly impressive last year - his main problem was just pitching management. Losing Prior and Wood to injuries, and Corey imploding upon himself like the sun - that's what made us lose. He got signed to a three year deal, let him finish it. If we suck this year, can him. Hard to blame him for last year though. Bobby Cox himself couldn't help Hollandsworth either if you noticed.

You guys can't be serious. Honestly.

He's become much more outspoken on it lately, though. It started after we traded Lawton. The Cubs management obviously read these articles, how do you think this makes Hendry feel?

I have enough of a memory to remember Don Baylor, Andy MacPhail and Ed Lynch.

Oh, I know - I accidently copied it all. Fixed. Thanks for trying to save me from the gallows though.

You've really convinced yourself that you'd make a better GM, haven't you?

It's more than tiresome, I can't stand it. Some people have the memory of a goldfish, and have the art of knee-jerk reactions mastered.

Hey, guys, think we could be even more dramatic?

Tejada makes less than Furcal. Unbelievable.

We all know you love Wilkerson. :lol: I think you might get your wish, though. It's no secret that Jim Bowden has always been infatuated with c-patt. Corey + Guzman + Nolasco = Wilkerson I sure hope that isn't true. It's just my opinion of what we might have to get up, I didn't read it as a possibility anywhere. Secondly, I don't think it's too much to give up at all. Guzman hasn't done -anything- at the major league level, and neither has Nolasco. Our pitching is set anyway with Prior-Z-Wood. Who cares about Corey. Plus, I mean look at the market right now, it's crazy. It might take even more than Corey/Guzman/Nolasco.
