A suggested end of the road for Willie Bloomquist, decent human being

Willie Bloomquist seems to be a wonderful person whom this city loves, but once again the time for him to depart is here.

I love Little Big League. It's the best child-oriented baseball movie of the 90s, mostly because it involves actual baseball strategy and dynamics that exist in a real clubhouse. This isn't my first time referencing it in a piece, and it probably won't be the last. Today, as Marlins GM Dan Jennings inserts himself into the dugout in Miami, I've been thinking about child-owner Billy Heywood doing the same in Little Big League, and all of the water park birthday parties/conflicts that will shortly arise within the Marlins organization.
