Just as I predicted to a friend of mine here at work and to a net.baseball.Padres fan that I correspond with, Dick Williams has resigned from the Padres at spring training. When he was getting jacked around last December by McKeon and company, I said that he ought to slide through winter like nothing was wrong, and then leave the Padres flat on their butts!! And he did!! Being a Braves fan, this doesn't phase me at all. Maybe the Padres will be easier to beat this year with a new manager, hopefully an unknown. PS. Did you hear that Perez hasn't shown up at Braves training camp yet? Chuck Tanner said that "I don't care if he ever shows up. There are 20 pitchers at camp, and any of them could have won 1 game" (referring to Perez' 1-13 record last year). Also, Bob Horner came to camp early to start working out--great!! Give em hell, Chuck. Go Braves!!! -- Russell Pierce 1200 W. 120th Ave. ...!ihnp4!druhi!rkp AT&T Denver, CO 80234-2795 (303) 538-2023 "Watching and waiting, for a friend to play with.
