OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Dealt back to the Angels
« on: February 14, 2014, 01:27:47 PM »
Jim Fregosi is dead.

How can we remember him?

- Hawk Harrelson's choice to replace The Genius, finishing last his two full seasons in Chicago.
- The guy who managed a clubhouse that included John Kruk, Darren Daulton, Mitch Williams and Lenny Dykstra.
- An All-Star shortstop with the California Angels.
- The centerpiece of the trade that sent Nolan Ryan to California.

Take your pick. But he's dead, the second all-star shortstop turned White Sox manager to see it all end in Miami.

Oddly, both managers in the 1979 ALCS died while on, or immediately after having been on, a cruise.

The sea seems to take more former managers than it does Herman Melville characters these days.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

David Foster Wallace warned of this nearly 20 years ago.
