  • Green Roars in Book, but Still Leaves out Some Key Cubs Angles
    Green roars in book, but still leaves out some key Cubs angles By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, September 13th, 2013 Dallas Green always had a voice so pow- erful you could hear him before you could see him. Those vocal cords emoted loud and clear over the long-distance line from his Mary- land farm. He hardly needed wires to make the connection. At 79, “Big D” sounds the same as he did in his voluble tenure as the franchise-changing Cubs general manager from 1981 to 1987. And if you think one year away from be- ing an octogenarian has played tricks with his memory, well, you don’t know the 6- foot-5 Green. Nearly three decades have passed since he shook the Cubs to the foundations, and paid the price for suc- cess not imprinted every year with his job. Like the elephant, he has not forgotten the Michigan Avenue suits who ardently wooed him, then pulled the quick hook on him after a little more than half a decade. Dallas Green may be all-white-haired on top at 79, but his voice is still heard loud and clear. Photo “Honestly, the Tribune (Co.) in terms of credit The SABR Office. money and position advancement was very good to me,” Green said. “Unfortunately, I didn’t get to finish what I started or enjoy the possibility of going to more playoffs and World Series. That has stuck in my craw pretty much. “It was my first experience with corporate ownership (after working for the Carpenter family-owned Phillies).

  • CLIPS Friday, April 01, 2011
    FLORIDA MARLINS, LP CLIPS Friday, April 01, 2011 Fresh Opening Day faces for Mets, Marlins Alden Gonzalez / MLB.com MIAMI -- This is when we'll finally begin to see how much change has really paid off. After several years of playoff absences, the respective front offices of the Mets and Marlins felt a switch at manager was necessary last year. Terry Collins of the Mets and Edwin Rodriguez of the Marlins will begin their respective quests to transform a culture and build success when they face each another on Friday, when Sun Life Stadium hosts its final Opening Day at 7:10 p.m. ET. The matchup between the two National League East rivals will feature the Mets' Mike Pelfrey and the Marlins' Josh Johnson, and it will signal the start of the final season before Florida moves into its highly anticipated retractable-roof stadium in 2012. For Rodriguez, who took the job when Fredi Gonzalez -- now with the Braves -- was dismissed on June 23, this will be his first Opening Day as a big league manager. For Collins, who last managed the Angels in 1999, it's his first in a long time. "This is the ultimate position to be in," Collins said, "and it's great to be back." The Mets -- apparently fed up with missing out on the playoffs for four straight years -- opted to start fresh this offseason, replacing general manager Omar Minaya with Sandy Alderson and Jerry Manuel with Collins. Then, toward the end of Spring Training, they cut ties with mercurial pitcher Oliver Perez and second baseman Luis Castillo -- two players symbolic of the Mets' recent underachievement.

It was announced January 24, 2019 that Jay Bell will manage the RailRiders for the 2019 season. He played over 2,000 games during an 18-year Major League career and has spent the last two years managing in the Yankees organization with Double-A Trenton and High-A Tampa. "I'm certainly excited about this opportunity," Bell said. "I truly enjoy the New York Yankees approach to player development. The organization's code revolves around respect, hard work and creating a winning atmosphere. We will strive to help players achieve their goals with an eye on making an impact in the Majors." Bell, 53, was initially selected in the first round of the 1984 June Amateur Draft by the Minnesota Twins and was traded to the Cleveland Indians a year later. He made his Major League debut in 1986 and spent three years with the Indians before becoming a fixture at shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates. After a year with Kansas City, Bell moved on to anchor the Arizona Diamondbacks infield seasons, including winning the 2001 World Series. Bell scored the winning run in Game 7 as the Diamondbacks edged the Yankees. After the 2003 season, Bell retired and joined the Diamondbacks field staff.
