DcFishFan Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Worse kept secret in baseball No kidding, the writing was on the wall as soon as we handed him the pink slip There are some here who believe (myself included), that it was the writing on the wall which led to him GETTING the pink slip. Gonzalez had one foot out the door even before he got fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
