C-Notes 2043.07 - Richardson on Hot Seat?

Post by GoldenOne » Sat Jun 20, 2020 2:00 pm

Charlotte Cougars GM Brett Golden has been seen around Family Dollar Field in an extremely irate mood. While Golden wouldn't go on record, several interns around the organization have been willing to share their thoughts on the situation.

It seems as though, while GM Golden thought the team might not quite make it to a .500 season this year, he did think that there would be enough improvement to get the team easily past the 70 win mark. Based on the team's current winning percentage, the Cougars would be lucky to get back to last year's win total of 62 wins again this season.

It also seems like the target of Golden's frustrations is Charlotte's first-ever draft pick, shortstop Quinn 'Short Stuff' Richardson. Richardson was drafted #1 overall in the Cougars' 2040 inaugural season draft. He rose quickly through the ranks. After spending the 2040 season in Short A Adirondack, Richardson progressed through AA and AAA ball before being called up to the Cougars in their September call-ups. Richardson had a promising debut going .259/.302/.537 in 27 games that September. Last season seemed to be an improvement on the 2041 season until a hamstring tear limited him to 110 games.

After spending the off-season making sure his hamstring was fully recovered, GM Golden expected Richardson to do great things this season. While it has only been 18 games, interns have reported that Golden, a man known to have a short-leash, has about had it with Richardson already. Some interns have heard Golden mumbling to himself about possibly sending Richardson back down to AAA to get his head straight while others have heard him screaming to "put the mother-f....er on the trading block TODAY."

This is definitely a situation we will be keeping our eyes on.
