Dave Dombrowski has been released from his contract as Detroit Tigers general manager and Al Avila, who served as the team's assistant GM, will replace Dombrowski.

"I feel this is the right time for the Tigers to move forward under new leadership," owner Mike Ilitch said in a statement Tuesday.

Having an MVP pitcher and a Triple Crown Winner just wasn't enough.
Looks like the guy who tried to get away with "REBOOTING" the team finally got the boot himself.
The record stands as- Zero WS titles in 13.5 years (?)

I hope the Shane Greene acquisition didn't have anything to do with it...after all, it was an idiot that traded Greene to Dombrowski.

"Its a wonderful life "what was the line in that movie by mr potter , 'NOT WITH MY MONEY!!

what is it you don't get about a GM?

Every single movie ever made about a sport, and who controls everything is all about the owner! how do you continue to NOT believe that a GM is simply a mouth piece for the owner, that he better know how to best interpret the owners every desire and that is what his sole responsibility is.

Watching the movie FOXCATCHER, the part where Dave wanted his brother mark to be taken care of financially, who answered? Du pont the freak was seated beside them, did not say a word. It was his manager that set the rules based upon what he knew DuPont would allow. Live it , learn it. No shoes no shirt no service!
 
They're not firing Cashman in order to hire Dombrowski so I'm not sure that would even be brought up.

The Yankees can hire Dombrowski, then demote Cahman to a position he so richly deserves, clubhouse PLO. If I were Steinbrenner I'd be on Dombrowski like white on rice.

Again, not even worth entertaining.

...again, there's a big difference between "should" and "would"?...and NOBODY said the y "would".

...if you disagree, fine, but don't presume to decide what ideas can and cannot be discussed.

Ok, so why can't I have an opinion that it's stupid to even discuss it?

...have I ever said your opinion or idea is "stupid"?

...pretty simple, if you don't want to be in the discussion you don't have to respond.


...my God, do we really need your's or anyone else's approval as to what worthy of discussing or not?

I'll respond as I wish. If it hurts your feelings I'm sorry. I think it's stupid and I said as much.

I'm not the one who started the discussion and I'm sure the OP can put his big boy pants on and speak for himself. Really no need for this idiotic argument.

I'd take the shot on Trashman, if someone, anyone can just get Dombrowski to NY. At least as a GM Adviser, to teach Brian etiquette if nothing else.........how not to stick your pinky out when sipping on a cup of anything......

One thing, No One can take from Dombrowski:

In 2003, the Tigers lost an American League-record 119 games, one fewer loss than the modern MLB record set by the 1962 New York Mets. After his 1st 2 full seasons, strutting a 98-219 W/L record.

In fourteen years with Tigers organization, Dombrowski led the Tigers to five playoff appearances, four consecutive American League Central division titles, four American League Championship Title appearances, including three consecutive ALCS Appearances; from 2011 to 2013, and two AL Pennants, in 011 and 013.......

While NO ONE can take his 2 Miami World Series Rings, even tho' the 1st one was bought......

(and yes, I do believe I'd rather have Dombrowski, and definitely Beane as a GM over Trashman, any day).......
 
It was a fucking joke! Sheesh! Tough audience.....put that tomatoes down I'm getting off stage, lol!
