The Helena Handbaskets made it official today, giving manager Joe Schmo his walking papers in a move that had long been rumored. In a statement released to the press, general manager Will Andeal said, "Letting anyone go is always a tough decision, but after reviewing the team's progress and discussing the future with Joe, the front office decided that a change was necessary." Third baseman Bill Jones summed up the mood of the team when he said, "It'll be tough sitting on the bench and not seeing Joe on the top step of the dugout, but it's a business and a game, and these things happen." Schmo led the Handbaskets for 3 seasons, compiling a record of 226-260.

(Note: This story would be a lot easier to write if manager records are tracked in 2K7...)
