I voted Wedge but another Tigers swoon and Leyland will probably shoot to the head of the pack... replacing him with his opposite would fit the pendulum theory of replacing managers (player's manager to hard-ass and vice versa) and those sorts of changes tend to work (unlike going from player's manager to players manager as the Jays have done).

I thought Wedge might be bulletproof this season considering his team's success last season.

"I thought Wedge might be bulletproof this season considering his team's success last season."

Also, they have have been decimated by injuries. Martinez, Hafner, Westbrook, and Carmona have all had serious injuries. I wish Baker would be fired. I don't trust him with the Red's great young staff.
