Re: I win \"No\" on Torre getting fired, right?!?
[ QUOTE ]
What do you guys think about Mattingly to be the next manager at 2/3 at bodog? Value? Girardi at 7/2 is the only other one I like here. Joe Girardi 7/2 Don Mattingly 2/3 Tony LaRussa 5/2 Bobby Valentine 5/1 Lou Piniella 15/1 Field (Any Other Manager) 27/20 [/ QUOTE ] I just maxed Girardi (only $100). I think he's at least as likely as Mattingly. It's hard for me to imagine either Piniella or Valentne being a serious candidate, and there's a lot of uncertainty around La Russa's situation. Girardi vs. Mattingly, Girardi seems like the more qualified candidate (manager of the year as opposed to no managerial experience at any level) and Girardi probably could have managed again in 07 if he didn't want to hold out for the Yankees' job- I'm speculating here, but I think Girardi thinks he will be the guy, and I'm not sure that Donnie's public waffling this week helps him. Thanks for posting. |

Seems clear enough. What book? [/ QUOTE ] vip, they haven't graded it yet, but this just happened today, so I expect they will shortly. 'Fired' is pretty much the opposite of 'offered to extend his deal for several $million.' |

I'd be shocked if VIP doesn't grade this in your favor.

Who says the contract expires on Dec 31? I always thought baseball contracts expired at the end of a team's season.

I think you may not be in the clear yet. Okay so his contract will expire. Isnt it possible that the Boss says "Alright then Im going to make a point and fire him" That certainly isnt beyond him. Also, remember you may not get paid until 12/2 because wouldn't his contract need to actually expire?
