Up above, video (via MLB.com) of Davey Johnson's speech at the BBWAA dinner in New York on Saturday night where he was honored for winning NL Manager of the Year. Highlights include Davey thanking Mets manager Terry Collins for trading R.A. Dickey out of the NL East, and thanking Chipper Jones for retiring. His closing line is pretty good, too:
"This is my last year, Mr. Rizzo. I'm not gonna give you a chance to fire me."
Let's hope not...
