Carney Lansford on his firing: "Never take a job for sentimental reasons."

Thought this article deserves it's own thread.

"If the Giants felt they needed a fresh voice and somebody might relate to a few hitters better, hey, all the best to ‘em. I’m not going to lose sleep because I’m not the hitting coach of the San Francisco Giants. That’s not going to happen."

I think you already know the answer to that question.

Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

Carney Lansford, summing up the organizational philosophy of the Giants:

“That said, we were able to stay in the wild card hunt until the final week of the season. I’m really proud of that. We kept the fans interested and excited for six months. I believe in my own mind that the team overachieved”
