      Amazingly enough, not a single player from that 1917 team was on this season’s post-season roster.

      Talk about an organization in turmoil!

      Fire Phil Garner!

      Congrats, Ozzie and his band of Pale Sox brothers.

      Theo turned down Red Sox offer. KT to interview. Could this be a Lucchino-Towers reunion?

      GY & the rest of the Ducksnort Gang - it’s been a fun season! THANKS! I’ll be checking in (almost) every day to see what’s being discussed … keeping an eye on our winter league boys … as well as changes in the front office and to the roster … let’s keep that Hot Stove burnin’! How many days ’till pitchers & catchers report? Start that countdown :-)

      Ladies and Gentlemen, you’re new GM of the AZ Diamondbacks: Josh Byrnes . . .

      I’m sure that one of the main factors in this decision was that he came cheaper than Towers.
