Like we all don't already know this:
.. Buddy Bell is not going to make it to next year as Royals manager,
executives familiar with the situation say. While Bell's Royals have rallied
to go 13-8 in their last 21 games, it won't be enough to save his job.
Kansas City is 31-57 overall after starting the season looking like it might
break the 1962 Mets' record of 120 defeats. Bell is 419-588 in three
managerial stops, including 74-126 with the Royals.
Reached on Friday, new Royals GM Dayton Moore said, "Right now I'm not in
position to evaluate anything going forward. I will never discuss publicly
an employees' contract until a decision has been made. It's way down the
list of priorities. Buddy's the manager. Buddy Bell is well-respected
throughout baseball, he's from a great baseball family, he's well-liked by
the players and the club is playing well.''
