Breaking News on Joe Torre

• At least Joe Torre isn't waiting by the phone. Someone must be following him because he's been reported to be at a race track and various restaurants lately. Anyway, glad to see he's getting out.

Hmmmm this needs to be parsed – too much going on.

At least Joe Torre isn't waiting by the phone.

I see. Because people actually wait by phones in 2007, right? Instead of, I don’t know, carrying them everywhere.

Someone must be following him because he's been reported to be at a race track and various restaurants lately.

Jon, your first little test of who this mysterious “someone” who “must be” following him is would be to determine where you go this juicy little piece of gossip.

Anyway, glad to see he's getting out.

Right. Right, me too. I’m worried about all multi-millionaire baseball managers who are no longer alive in the playoffs that have expired contracts. Has anyone checked on Tony LaRussa lately? I haven’t heard about him going out to eat. Are we sure John McLaren’s not waiting by the phone with a loaded .38?

Lloyd McClendon is sitting by the phone, peacefully stroking the base he stole from PNC Park back in 2003 (or whenever that was).
