I hate to stir the pot but we didn’t lose him. It was mutual. Him and Peyton Chatagnier were basically let go due to low bay production. Hate that too because both were instrumental in our national title. Bianco had to do something after how bad we were last year. Not sure he did enough to save his job.

Yeah… those two weren’t the ones that needed to be processed. Both struggled at the plate some but they were also multi year starters. Chat was excellent on defense. McCants was always fun at the plate even if he tried a little too hard to look like Griffey and struck out. Will never forget McCants finding his mom at the CWS and how emotional it was. She died 2 or 3 months later
