Joy in Bluntville? Chrismer at the Bat
If the Royals hired Tony LaRussa to manage the team, and LaRussa signed Chris Carpenter, would the Royals go from worst to first in a year?
Probably not, but Carp would elevate the level of play of his teammates, and restore some faith among the fans that want to root for the home team but don’t care for their brand of baseball.
Expect a .500 performance next year. By ‘08, they may be contenders.
