10/29: The Journal News: Torre to L.A.; Mattingly to Follow?
Posted by: Patrick
The Journal News is reporting that the Dodgers have decided to fire Grady Little and replace him with Joe Torre.
It gets better. The article also notes that Don Mattingly is expected to go with him and become his bench coach. And, apparently, Torre is interested in Kevin Long, too.
Wow. Just... wow. What else is gonna happen? Is Guidry headed over there? A-Rod to the Dodgers? Is the reincarnate of DiMaggio going to coach third? Jeez.
This is bad for us. It would have been better if he stayed out a year or, at least, until we had Mo and Posada signed and we had Andy back under his option. Not that they won't come back to us, but they don't need even more temptation not to and, if the Dodgers come calling for a catcher or a closer... well, hold tight everyone.
