A direct slap in the face to Marrone.

 

This front office, while making a lot of good moves seems to be a bit spiteful and overly sensitive.

 

The lose of Marrone hurt a lot more than many know. It shocked the FO, however, in turn, made them stronger.

 

OBD may have room to mature but they are doing a great job.

Tough not to be spiteful and overly sensitive. They hired their guy and he bolts with no warning after 1 year, leaving them in a lurch with a new owner who already would be tempted to clean house and bring in his own people.

He had an option in his contract. Do you think Whaley was unaware of that?

It really should be, "One ego... one goal... one embarrassingly lame slogan."

I would love to see what got left on the shop room floor if this is the winner.

It is tough, but not ideal behavior, if this, in fact is a low blow to Marrone.

I think the purpose behind the option was a new owner who would be tempted to clean house. Option would give marrone protection.

 

But they got a new owner who liked marrone and wasn't going to clean house. I don't think they envisioned him exercising the option under those circumstances and just to cash in and try to find something better.

 

I bet there was a lot of bitterness and feelings of betrayal.

I just look at how Marrone and Whaley were on such different wavelengths in 2014, and I just don't know how bitter you could feel about someone you didn't really agree with moving on.
