Another classless move by Ned and McA-hole

I am not opposed to firing Grady Little and finding a better manager. I am opposed to acting like JD Drew, repeatedly say a certain person would be back next year and then acting like this. If you want to hire Joe Girardi or Joe Torre, give Grady the respect he deserves, FIRE him, and then proceed with the search. DON'T have a guy in place, interview and offer others the job and have it leaked to the press and then have Grady "resign" to save face. I swear this continues to be the worst run organization in baseball since McStupid took over.

Now to Torre. I'm ok with Joe as our manager, I guess. My real problem is that Mr. Yankee, Donnie Baseball is rumored to be coming with him. WHAT? Excuse me? Is nothing sacred anymore? Are cats and dogs living in harmony? For an organization as old and full of quality alumni as the Dodgers, to hire MULTIPLE YANKEES makes me throw up in my mouth. Torre I guess, isn't really a Yankee. He was a Brave, a Met, a Cardinal as player or coach, never having much success and then landed the right job at the right time with the Yanks and the rest is history. I'm ok with this but Don Mattingly?!?!?!?! What about Orel Hershiser? Kirk Gibson? Tim Wallach? Karros? Look what happened when we ignored Mike Scioscia!

This just makes no sense. I don't care if his punk ass son is in our minor leagues, that is not reason enough to offer him a job. He is the Yankees and they didn't want to hire him? That should be a clue. Also, does this mean we're trading the kids or committing to them? Is Torre really a coach for a team of rooks? He's never really had to bring up kids outside of Jeter, Posada and Rivera. Soriano didn't last in NY. Many other NY kids were constantly traded away.....

Does this help get us ARod? I could swear Torre batted ARod 8th last year. Called him out several times. Took Jeter's side. I really want ARod and would pay what it takes but does this get us closer or basically kill that dream? We'll find out soon.
