I Think Dusty's Getting Fired

No, I don't have any kind of inside info or anything, but this article at the Official Site kind of seals the deal, doesn't it? Have you ever in your life seen an article like this that isn't almost immediately proceeded by the coach's firing? And it's on the Official Site, no less!
I say, Dusty doesn't last the week.

The official unofficial site
Ah, but don't you know that "this story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs"? ;)
I wonder if Carrie Muskat tried to get a comment from Jim Hendry and couldn't.
Hendry on WGN Radio
Hendry was on WGN AM 720 on the Sports Central show tonight and emphatically said that Baker is staying on as manager. Also, Steve Stone on WSCR AM 670 reaffirmed his belief that Baker will be extended if he wants to be. Finally, one of the most reliable indicators if a Cubs manager is on his way out is what Ron Santo says about him and thus far there has been no indication that Santo's feelings towards Baker have lessened any.
The only way that Baker gets fired soon is if the White Sox sweep the upcoming series. If Baker can't get his troops fired up for a series with the defending World Champs, then he can't likely get them energized for any games whatsoever.
