I don't want this to sound rude ... but I have never understood Toronto Blue
Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi. I mean that sincerely. I just don't
understand. I have friends all around the game who will tell me what a bright
guy J.P. is, what a good baseball man he is, what a grounded person he is,
what a nice guy he is, and so on. And I have no reason to doubt them except
this: I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
And no, this isn't about the incredibly dumb things Ricciardi says, like the
time he basically called Gil Meche a loser because he signed with the Kansas
City Royals instead of his own multiple-championship team in Toronto
(Ricciardi's team career record is 489-483 with zero playoff appearances in
seven seasons). Or the time he ripped Adam Dunn for not liking baseball and
then claimed to have apologized to Dunn even though Dunn insisted that he never
heard from Ricciardi (at which point Ricciardi made some comment about how
someone was PRETENDING to be Dunn, or something like that). Or the time he
lied about B.J. Ryan's injury and then offered up the classic, "They're not l
ies if we know the truth," quote.
No. Forget all that. Here's my thing about J.P. Ricciardi,
the thing that
really baffles the heck out of me: How can someone keep giving out contracts
THIS BAD and keep his job and reputation? I'm serious. How?
...内文自行参考
"In fact, really, we should just start referring to bad baseball contracts as
"Ricciardis.""
我觉得最後一句很好笑XDD
