It's too bad anytime an RBI'er gets canned but the D'Backs are pretty shitty this year. Maybe big Al Pedrique will lead them to the promised land.
Wow, Al Pedrique is a manager... Obviously the GM and owner never played RBI
Ole Al gets the last laugh after all!

We here in AZ saw it coming last year. I had bets placed on June. Guess I was just a little off.
I remember we agreed it would be pre-all star game
Fittingly, given his RBI skills, Pedrique lost his first game as a manager (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/baseball/mlb/07/03/bc.bbo.twins.diamondbacks.ap/index.html).
If the GM was smart, he'd sub Pedrique for Dale Murphy before the game starts.
Dunno about that, Murphy is too good at #8. I usually save that spot for the somewhat-crappy John Kruk, but I think he already has a gig. He would make a good manager, at least his interviews would be entertaining...
not only is the great 8 al pedrique the manager of the d'backs.... but they also broke up gagne's save streak.... way to go big al
By the way, Wally Backman is the A manager for the DBacks. He's rumored to be the next manager. A RBIer replaced with and RBIer replaced with an RBIer? Gentlemen, this is something you can tell your grandkids about. I think it's safe to say this will never, ever happen again.
Indeed.
