He should have been put on the disabled list and sent to rehab if he wanted to retain his his job.

You know, that interesting. That would have been the right thing to do. It would have been the best thing to do.

LaRussa has a recent drunk driving arrest of his own, and I wonder if that was a factor in a decision not to come down harder on Hancock? If Hancock had a drinking problem then it would have ultimately been for his own good to get help for it. Employers do have some leverage in that regard. It's too late now, though.

Yes, I'm aware of that LaRussa drunken driving incident in spring training this year. Seemed to have handled that poorly with the media as well. You got the impression that he wan't sufficiently contrite - especially when you consider he's an older man who is well educated.

As I say, he's skating on thin ice.
