GM Byrnes Upstaged by CEO's Hot Stove Triumph

It had been a whirlwind off season for GM Josh Byrnes, acquiring a pair of starting infielders and four moundsmen, but nothing revitalized the heart of the franchise or calmed the guts of dyspeptic fans like Derrick Hall's hot stove triumph Monday night. Hall ditched the baloney and candy floss he's been serving customers for years in favor of a sounder, healthier alternative he's confident will be a recipe for 2010 success and beyond.

Forget Heilman & Howry. Jackson and Kennedy. Kelly Johnson and Adam LaRoche. The Diamondbacks' CEO and reluctant bon vivant has - according to him - gifted us something more lasting and precious.

Health and happiness, courtesy of his own vital life choices.

Anonymous-I was actually going to say exactly the same thing. Why is Matt covering up the fact that Byrne's was clearly involved in a high voltage electric attack on China? This cooking video was obviously the signal for the attack to go ahead.

Anon,

I quake at your goundbreaking analysis.


Russell,

Derrick's ulcer-friendly habanero recipe may trigger a famine or two, but at this point, nothing he cooks up rises to "earth-shattering" :-)
