dusty to dust
the catalog of northside misery grows. chad fox’s elbow blew out. nomar’s linked to roids. and dusty baker’s a lech.
which is the least of his problems. after sev’l of dusty's in-game moves backfired and chicago blew a late lead to pgh on saturday, the cub blog army finally deserted. baker’s toast. the watch has officially begun. nice summary of the mutineers' remarks over at goat riders of the apocalypse, who writes:
"Look at the list of Blogs calling for Dusty Baker's head today. Bleed Cubbie Blue, The Cub Reporter, View From the Bleachers, Rooftop Report, we know Sloth, Ivy Chat, Cub Fan Nation, and the whole Desipio gang are out for Dusty's head... Mike Comar of Cubs Pundit has recently re-titled his blog, Fire Dusty Baker. In other words, I really think Dusty lost Cubs fans today. I personally gave him a million-and-a-half chances... and I'm done. Dusty Baker sucks."
that was on saturday, right after a frustrating loss. having taken a couple of days to cool down, goat riders weighs in today with this: "All we can do is hope that Jim Hendry also noticed Dusty's abuse of Chad Fox. All we can hope is that all of Dusty's bonehead, moronic mistakes are piling up. Otherwise, the Cubs won't win. They just can't. Not with Baker at the helm."
rooftop report has already started vetting candidates to succeed dusty and names a surprise preference: "Dierker's first year managing the Astros he had 7 players in double-digit steals. In his second season all eight starting position players were in double-digit steals. He knew how to use a bullpen, with his relievers all appearing in between 40-65 games a year. Nobody was overused and worthless at the end of the season."
and the fellahs at cubsfun have produced a definitive critique of dusty’s roster handling and lineup manipulations (courtesy of the cub reporter). comments to that post include the following: "I wish there was a way to prove this but I would bet my house that the Cubs would win signficantly more games with Scott Skiles managing than with Dusty."
and it's only april . . . .
