Dusty Baker, has had an incredibly successful career by any standard, approaching 2,000 wins and managing against the tides as a Black leader. Yet, he's also lost jobs after making the playoffs and winning 90-plus games. In one case, he had to wait until a white candidate rejected a position because of a lowball offer. Most recently, jobless for two years after winning 97 games, one of the most iconic Black managers in history was asked to clean up the mess after a once-in-a-century scandal in Houston. Being Black, you pay attention to how your legacy representatives are treated. Especially when more Dusty Bakers are needed in the game -- not fewer.
Yeah. and John Farrell got canned at the end of 2017 after back to back division championships and 93 win seasons and a World Series title only four years earlier. It's not many times I get to call an Ivy League graduate a stupid frick, but Doug Glanville is a stupid, racist frick.
