I’m glad they will stay around, particularly Leyland. I’ll settle for competence compared to the long stream of post-Sparky managers that preceded Leyland.

At 83 Mr. Illitch can’t wait around forever for Dombrowski and Leyland to earn their stripes. Good Luck Mr. I!

Clearly they are being rewarded for having nice cushion in the AL Central and not for being 61-53.
