原文 http://0rz.tw/fbgXw I don't want this to sound rude ... but I have never understood Toronto Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi. I mean that sincerely. I just don't understand. I have friends all around the game who will tell me what a bright guy J.P. is, what a good baseball man he is, what a grounded person he is, what a nice guy he is, and so on. And I have no reason to doubt them except this: I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. And no, this isn't about the incredibly dumb things Ricciardi says, like the time he basically called Gil Meche a loser because he signed with the Kansas City Royals instead of his own multiple-championship team in Toronto (Ricciardi's team career record is 489-483 with zero playoff appearances in seven seasons). Or the time he ripped Adam Dunn for not liking baseball and then claimed to have apologized to Dunn even though Dunn insisted that he never heard from Ricciardi (at which point Ricciardi made some comment about how someone was PRETENDING to be Dunn, or something like that). Or the time he lied about B.J. Ryan's injury and then offered up the classic, "They're not l ies if we know the truth," quote. No. Forget all that. Here's my thing about J.P. Ricciardi, the thing that really baffles the heck out of me: How can someone keep giving out contracts THIS BAD and keep his job and reputation? I'm serious. How? ...內文自行參考 "In fact, really, we should just start referring to bad baseball contracts as "Ricciardis."" 我覺得最後一句很好笑XDD -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.136.180.33

記得聽過一種說法 是說多倫多稅重又冷 很少球員會願意來

所以再談合約時都會處於弱勢

所以不是氣侯問題? 那是重稅? 還是根本沒有"球員不願來"這回

球員應該是不願意來,但是跟天氣無關,跟某人有關
