Baseball Aholics: Torre's Last Stand

Monday, October 8, 2007

Is this it for the Yankee's manager Joe Torre? It's 5:30pm and the Yankees are down 4-0 in the bottom of the second... we will see.

Brilliant.

I think this could be it for Torre, and I think that's pretty weak. As much as a love to see the Yankees struggle, I've always liked Torre and think that no other manager on the face of the earth has to put up with more crap than he does from his owner. In a way I'll bet he'll be glad to be done with it. You can only be undercut, undermined, and underappreciated for so long before it starts to wear you out. But, I still hope the Yankees lose. :); October 8, 2007 at 5:38 PM
