You can't really blame Girardi for turning the job down because he knows that at the end of this year the Yankee job is going to open up and its going to be between him and Mattingly for that job so he figured that was worth a shot but on the other side of the spectrum Trembley has turned out to be a good move, the players are happy, he actually does drills with them such as infield practice and bunting practice and baserunning practice and other stuff that has become a lost cause in the majors other than for during spring training. On Monday afternoon the orioles took infield practice which other than spring training was the first time in 7 years that they did
