Our Front Office is Worse Than Others

We did not offer Guillen arbitration (via rotoworld).  That's ridiculously stupid.  Where's the downside in offering arbitration?  Maybe Bavasi and McLaren's heads would have exploded trying for another year to fit Jones into the lineup.

Actually, that's not much of a downside either...

Not smart
but hardly a backbreaking decision.  The M's lose a sandwich pick.  Maybe they were afraid of him coming back or something.  Who knows.

Crap
That practically guarantees Sexson's coming back.

Moron front office. The intimation from Churchill is that it's from the "suits"...i.e., Armstrong or Lincoln...

I jsut try to remember this
"If and when we realize that it just isn't going to happen this year (NICK EDIT: or tht our front office is completely retarded), remember this post, and in particular remember this sentence: getting angry at a baseball game (decision) is just you having the wrong response to something that was probably hilarious. Stick with that philosophy while watching this team and you'll be giggling like a little bitch in no time."

This is grade-A hilartiy. The suits can have either a good player on a one-year deal OR a decent draft pick for free, and they say 'No thx"? Damn funny.

That, and i'm drunk.

Chuck LaMar
is a veteran GM who has been through the free agency wars and immediately makes this front office better (hiccup).  - Chuck Armstrong
