Yes!

It’s good to hear the players speaking out about it too.

I guess it is good

If you are hoping the entire team rebels and they lose 100 games next year, in order to spite Moorad.

Of course not.

I just think it’s good to hear what the player’s think about the situation. I even think it’d be more spiteful to win 100 next year, because we all know that the only reason our team is where it’s at right now is because of the decisions made by KT.

"I'm a Padre at heart. Always gonna root for the Padres. Twenty-five years [with this organization], how can't you? Next year I'm gonna be rooting like a son-of-a-gun for these guys and for Blackie ... I'm gonna be rooting for the next general manager here, rooting for the city, the fans, everybody. I think a lot of San Diego." -Kevin Towers

Wow.

That’s not good. I really hope this isn’t going to kill the morale of this team.

Great

Adams will probably want to beat feet this year, or be paid top dollar when it goes to arbitration. Who can blame him?

"Get on board early," Black said, alluding to, what he feels, is a crop of up-and-coming players.

I'm not sure how he did with the Indians?

Had some issues in SD though. Easily overlooked when you see the 0.73 ERA over 30 some odd innings…

Damn.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? ◔ヮ◔
