1/5/2013: Kalamazoo, MI – Seems like the Badgers‘ faithful are becoming somewhat concerned with the lack of information from the front office.  It has been over one week since the announcement of the organization’s new GM with no follow-up news flowing from Portage Park.  When contacted at his baseball operations office, Bob Baginski indicated that he was engrossed in the initial evaluation of the organization, offering,  “I have a clear directive from ownership and, simply put, it is to turn this organization around.  That is what I intend to do; that is what the baseball fans of Kalamazoo deserve.”

Baginski went on to say, “I am scheduling a more detailed interview with local sports radio station The Fan.  Although many components of our rebuilding plan need to remain confidential at this point, I will be able to provide an idea of our direction during this interview, so stay tuned!”

Hopefully this gives the hot stove faithful something to look forward to as we plod our way through this bitter January.
