49.02; Disaster in Center

After watching the first episode of Ted Lasso on Apple TV Oldies, I've become somewhat of an expert on the profound mismanagement in the upper offices of sports franchises. Every one of those ass-hats in leadership is a no-good, conniving lunatic with motives opposite of those of their team's fan base. Shoeless has proven, once again, he cares little for actually winning in Sacramento. Instead, he feeds his ego by acquiring big name stars with no regard to piecing together a complete ballclub.

The Popes had three ballplayers man centerfield last season: Arthur Daniel, Sergio Salazar, and Wasim Ala'. All three have been traded away this off-season; Ala as part of the Wullenweber deal, and the other two in various salary dumps to that snake in Charlotte.

Now, most cunning, forward-thinking general managers would have a plan in place before allowing their three best options at a premiere position to clean out their lockers, but not the almighty Shoeless. No, he looks to be using spring training to decide which low minors centerfield quasi-prospect will find himself on a plane with his new Sacramento teammates for opening day in effing Long Beach.

Most analysts believe Joel Woodroffe is in the driver's seat for the starting role, with "Thrash" Zhao likely to be his short-side platoon partner. Neither is especially exciting offensively or defensively, but, who cares, right? We got Wullenweber.

Dumb.

Fire Shoeless.

That'll happen when when nobody else in this league actively is looking to always make a trade. :D

I've got a couple of guys you might be interested in and could help you out in center - Arthur Daniel and Sergio Salazar. Let me know if you want to make a deal.
