2009 MLB Season Thread

Have managers ever gotten fired after a win? Cause I think I might have to start rooting for losses.

Indians GM Mark Shapiro is scheduled to meet with team president Paul Dolan and owner Larry Dolan to discuss manager Eric Wedge's future "in the next few days."
The Indians are stuck in last place with a 29-42 record, and the natives by the Lake are getting restless. Shapiro told the Cleveland Plain Dealer on Sunday that he wants to keep Wedge as the manager

Clint Hurdle, was fired on May 30th, officially, after a 3-0 win for the Rockies on May 29th. So, I guess managers have been fired after a win. Hurdle, is also from Big Rapids, MI, which I didn`t know.

I know ever since they fired him they've been crazy hot, but I still think firing him was a mistake.

I'm going to the rays vs phillies game tonight so hopefully I can have some fun.

 

[VC15]

I honestly believe that if the Mets sweep us the next time we play them, Girardi will be fired very shortly after that.

 

[elcheato]

Indians made a couple of moves today, but not the ones I wanted.. Jose Veras I believe we traded cash for. And dealt Michael Aubrey, a minor league first basemen to the O's for a player to be named later.

 

[VC15]

You guys can have Veras, all he's good for is giving up leads in any type of situation.

 

[elcheato]

Then he'll fit right in with our current bullpen.

 

[RipCity32]

Then he'll fit right in with our current bullpen.

LMFAO!!

back to back homers by Hill and Wells, 3-0 Jays in the first

 

[Gtown81]

Lind with a homer now, 5-0 Jays in the first. Arroyo is getting pwnd.

 

[VC15]

Another battle to the death with a bad team. This may be the most pathetic streak offensively that I can remember by the Yankees.

FRANCISCO CERVELLI HITS HIS FIRST MLB HR TO TIE THE GAME

CHEATERS NEVER WIN <Censored>ES

 

[Lake Louise]

Tigers up 3-2. First run of the series that wasn`t scored because of a Homer. The 1st 9 runs of the series had all been scored via Homers. Laird & Cabrera with Homers today.

 

[Lake Louise]

Bases loaded walk. Tigers up 4-2.

 

[VC15]

4-1 Yankees in the seventh.

Girardi finally did something right and got tossed for arguing that horrendous call and the Yankee offense exploded under Tony Pena's managing.

lol, who exactly cheated here?

 

[Lake Louise]

4-2 Tigers in the 7th.

 

[VC15]

lol, who exactly cheated here?

Gardner had a big lead at first and beat the throw back by a full second and it was called a pick-off.

The only good that came out of it was that Girardi got tossed and the Yankee offense immediately follwed that by breaking out of a no-no en route to taking a 3-1 lead by the end of the inning.

Braves are falling apart now.

5-3 Yankees.

 

[Gtown81]

Jays win, currently on a 3 game winning streak looking to sweep the reds and make it 4.
