[Senator Clay Davis]

I mean the more I think about the timing, the less it makes sense. Its not to try and get a GM candidate who could go elsewhere (where else is there to go?). Its not because of the record (What? Did Burke expect playoffs???). Only things I can possibly think of are money (i.e this saves them paying some) or refusal to fall in line with Burke (which anyone could see coming, so why not fire him in July?). Obviously if a trade goes through in the coming days that might be the answer.
