I'm bummed.
Last year, Charlie Slowes and Dave Shea served as the radio broadcast team, and though Slowes is expected to return, Shea said he received a call this morning from a team official, who told him he would not be asked back."I'm really disappointed," Shea said in a telephone interview. "I really loved doing it. I thought I had been received well. Not well enough, apparently. I'm not sure what the future holds." Slowes did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
(from the Post.)
Charlie and Dave made my summer last year. It also sucks that they waited this long to let him go, although I suppose the Bruins had probably already hired a new guy by October.
Rick Short won't be back either, in New Orleans or with the big club.
New Orleans Zephyrs infielder Rick Short will not return to the Zephyrs, or the team's parent club - the Washington Nationals - in 2006. Short's contract has been purchased by Tohoku Rahoten of the Japanese Baseball League. (press release)
This is why I don't follow the offseason too closely. It's depressing.
