Lunchtime thoughts
1. After allowing it to digest, the Orioles firing of Perlozzo, I don’t have a problem with it. What I do have a problem with is promoting the bullpen coach to a manager job. This is a bullpen that cost the manager his job, so this guy gets promoted? Yeah, that makes sense.
2. A correction about my HDDVD/BD rant. The cheapest BD player is now $499, so prices continue to drop. Still, $199 is cheaper than $499 for now, so we’ll see what happens. Not having Disney is a problem for HDDVD, but I just have a problem with BluRay the way it was shoved down our throats. I will concede that BD seems to have the advantage. However, HDDVD has Christopher from the Sopranos endorsing it, so there you go. LOL.

The bullpen coach is a stop gap until either Girardi, Davey Johnson (I hope) or Dusty Baker (just say no!) are hired!

INTERIM - a temporary or provisional arrangement.
A lot of teams assign an interim manager, so there isnt any reason to more moist than you already do.

I heard that they are looking at John McNamara as the next coach

There you go Dan. Power to the people
That lowest-cost Blu Ray machine is still nearly double what the A2 costs.
