Where Have You Gone, Mr. Robinson?
It looks like Frank Robinson won't be back in the dugout for the Nationals next season:
"Let me say this: I had my say. We sat down, each one, and I had my discussions with them. And I'm very comfortable with what ... I wanted to say about the situation here and my situation. Other than that, I just don't want to go into depth on anything said behind closed doors at this time."
Robinson spoke with Kasten for 20 to 25 minutes, and Bowden for a little less, and the manager said: "We agreed to make the announcement later on. ... In the very near future."
Robinson is a giant of the game, and I hope he stays involved in baseball in some capacity. However, he record as a manager is less than stellar. None of the teams he skippered had a .500 record under his tenure.
