His comments also doesn't bother me, but likewise if a white manager had said "oh the black players can't handle the cold as well as white people" the quote would be all over mainstream press.

I doubt if white managers want to get in this type of briar patch, but if they do, they need to preface their comment with the words, "According to Dusty Baker, blacks and latinos play better in the heat and whites play better in the cold."

Other whites can use Dusty Baker's comments to say things like, "Whites are generally good builders because they lived in the cold and needed good structures to help them survive freezing raid and snowy weather. Whereas, blacks and latinos lived in dirt huts and jungles and didn't inherit the need to have clean, sturdy, living quarters or places to work."

They can go and say that whites developed better educational and medical systems because they had a lot of time to sit around and think because of their relatively safer living enviornments, but blacks and latinos had to continually run from lions, tigers, and bears (oh my) and didn't have time to think.
