Mattingly sure looks happy with his ladyfriend/non-ex-wife.
ReplyDeleteCould he have sounded any more non-commital about staying around? I thought he was supposed to be Torre's protege, his understudy. Mattingly sounds as silly as Derek Lowe when making the west coast/east coast comparison.
Even with his noncommittal response I still think he'll be wearing Blue for at least this coming season.
ReplyDeleteI probably agree with Mattingly more than I like to admit when it comes to the east vs. west battle. Having never seen a game on the east coast it's really hard for me to judge it, but I suspect that beach balls at Yankee Stadium would be unacceptable. Whereas, many Angelenos go to game to be entertained, I suspect Red Sox Nation lives, breaths and dies with the team.
Thats not to say us west coast fans aren't similar. It's just that I think that passion is in much greater numbers on the east and that they clearly outnumber those who come to be just entertained.
