Sheer lunacy
According to this article Jim Hendry doesn't think the Cubs as they are currently composed, need anything more than a "tweaking".
"“We need to obviously go back and look at how we might have done things that haven’t been successful and keep the parts we think are going to be successful. But if you look at it constructively, you still have a lot of people that are quality major-league players that are not old that can help you next year.”"
Well, Jim,with that crack managerial and coaching staff you put together, they won't be able to coach and manage those quality major league players any better next year than they are doing this year.
Here's a hint, Jim. If your manager refuses to play guys like Murton, Cedeno, Guzman, whoever, because "he's trying to win now" you should fire him on the spot. As you would say, obvisly, if he's been trying to win now" so far, he definitely is the worst manager in the history of baseball. In fact, he might do better if he tried to lose. I see no way this team of rejects is going to go 50 and 30 (after tonight's loss) to make it to .500, much less go 60 and 20 to get in playoff contention, so it only makes sense to play the 2nd half with next season in mind. Also, if he plays the regular losers vs. contenders because he wants to "play his best against the contenders" fire him also. His best has sucked most of this season. Otherwise, Jim, you should be the one that gets fired.
