Is it possible that Shapiro is planning on bringing in Francona and this is what he and AA can't agree on? I can see AA being a pussy regarding letting Gibby go, since he was his choice over that long hard thought out process, especially after making it to the ALCS. Now that I think about it, there's a really good chance of this being the case.

 

I could see this, very possible.

He'll be back much like Don Mattingly was back with the Dodgers after they brought on Friedman. But he's not Shapiro's guy so he's not very safe.

 

Not sure if this point was made or not, but starting January, if Gibby is not fired than he gets paid for the following year. So as he wasn't fired in Jan 2015, he is going to get paid for 2016. Now if you don't fire him before Jan 2016 then you will pay him for 2017. I am sure Rogers would like MS to make up his mind so they don't pay someone to do nothing for a year. If they already have doubts about him they may opt to just let him go before his contract renews for another year.

I bet Shapiro hates that nonsense rolling contract that Gibbons has. What a sweet deal for a guy like Gibby / stupid deal for the club.

 

Yeah if this was the sticking point than AA was the architect of his own demise by giving Gibby a contract that would force the org to have this discussion every December.

Can you just stop with this demoted and fired ********? There is nothing to suggest either of those things happened and you braying it out over and over doesn't make it true.

 

Do you realize that you're speaking to the most logical person in the world? He did a test and everything, so back off.

I think Gibbons will be here in 2016.

 

I do too. Managers have little bearing on the outcome of the season anyway and Shapiro likely doesn't want to rock the boat any further if he doesn't have to.

 

Like I said above, he'll be in a similar spot as Don Mattingly was this year with the Dodgers because he's not the GM's guy.

I did a test too. I tested my browser input to make sure I was actually at Blue Jays Message Board and not the CBC comments section, so maybe Grant can bleat his garbage there instead.

 

holy f***ing fire roast

It amazes me that people watched the playoffs this year and still say this with a straight face.

 

He said "little" not "none".
