My favourite Terry Francona story, oft-repeated, one more time.

Sean Casey, playing for the Red Sox, was thrown out twice at second base, trying to stretch a single, within one week.  After the second one he was visibly upset in the dugout, in a rage, and so Francona put his arm around Casey's shoulder in a fatherly way, and walked him up the runway towards the clubhouse.  When they were safely out of earshot of the other players, Francona turned to Casey and asked: "are you sure you don't have polio?"

That's why I love Terry Francona.

Francona was hired by Cleveland a season before Leyland retired.  I've wondered what might have happened had the timing been lined up to where Leyland retired and Francona was available.  Maybe he'd have ended up in Cleveland anyway.

There is more than enough evidence to say to the Tigers brass that this should be the last time Wentz ever wears the old English D. 

I was gonna say Wentz hasnt raised his game with other young pitchers might be the odd man out at this point

The announcers keep talking about how he has major league stuff, I’d like to know what they’re watching?

Can we extend that to Badoo and Carpenter in the field ? Four runs donated today.

tomorrows a bullpen game so i'd think that was the one

I think we’ve been pretty solid in bullpen games this season. Wentz going 3 innings probably doesn’t help the cause tomorrow.
