I wound try a different manager b
I wanted Trey Hillman.
Or Brian Butterfield.
I was dead wrong about him. But right now he's going to injure every pitchet on the staff if they don't get hom the heck out of here

Terrible news: OF Frank Frias suffered a dislocated ankle and broken fibula on a freak play at second base today, according to hitting coach Drew Henson. He’s having surgery tomorrow to put plates in his leg. Sounds like another Ravel Santana/David Adams incident. Yuck.
It really does. Things either happen 1 time or three times, though, almost never just twice.

Terrible news about Frias. He was a very cheap signing ($7,500.00) and was far outplaying his bonus.
IMO, this is a career-ending injury. Adams did come back (approx. 2 seasons later) but Santana never did.
A real shame.
Two sort of interesting notes about Cashman from Sherman's perspective:
1) He thinks relationships matter to family owned business, and that is in Cashman's favor in terms of returning. He said Minaya stayed too long wit the Mets for that reason, and I would argue Cashman has been here five years too long.
2) Hal has to be disappointed in how the big money he spent produced, but Sherman "suspects" that Cashman wasn't on board with all the signings, and although he doesn't know who he wanted and who he didn't, Hal does, and if he was right about some that didn't, that could work in his favor.
Again, from my perspective, there has always been a shadow roster with Cashman. At one time, he was unequivocally right, like Beltran and Vlad in 2004 over Randy Johnson and Sheffield, but he is the one who has prioritized pitching when it was the foreseeable that the core bats were getting old, which was really after 2009.
I think he will be back because Hal won't give a proven GM autonomy.
Now, Cashman if his words mean anything, has made a lot of money. I guess a bunch went in his messy divorce, but if he ever wants to show what he could do on his own, he is at a good age to move on.
"I think he will be back because Hal won't give a proven GM autonomy."
This.

Personally, I would love to know which signings Cashman was against.
Also, did he want to give 10 years to Cano? My guess is no, based on the contract length. Therefore, I wonder if he was on board with the Ellsbury signing.
Also, I believe he was not on board with the Beltran signing, and I wonder about the McCann signing.
Who knows? But if you keep taking the big check contract after contract, you're at least implicitly responsible.
