I'll admit, I was disspirited when they let Alfonso Soriano get away, but that has proved to have been the right move. So I hope things similarly work out here, with the draft picks and defense making up for the home runs and the fan popularity. Rizzo has compiled a pretty good record so far as GM, so we can only hope he knows what he's doing. There still seems to be a whiff of tone-deafness and incomprehension on the part of the Lerners that part of this business-unlike with the shopping mall business-is pumping up the fans, a small circle of fanatics like us and a larger circle of casual fans out for a good time on a summer evening. Fans like to see booming home runs. Not many fans will turn out in 2011 to see a small-ball team that might get to within a few games of .500 if they're lucky. That's okay...assuming that's the price we have to pay to win in 2012 and beyond. I just hope the fans stay interested long enough to see that happen, if it ever does.Nicknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647291021082797487.post-60094120969640370882010-12-03T00:39:47.419-05:002010-12-03T00:39:47.419-05:00your reasoned arguments annoy me...LOUD NOISES...S...your reasoned arguments annoy me...LOUD NOISES...SKY FALLING...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
