Two ways to play ball

Two “L.A.” teams. Two general managers. And the stakes are high.

Ned Colletti, one card away from a royal flush, looks into the eyes of his fellow gamblers and goes all in, betting on drawing an ace.

Bill Stoneman, needing two cards to fill out his six-high straight, draws only one, preferring to hold onto a pair of threes and figures to bluff his way to the pot.

Frank McCourt says that the decision to move spring training from Vero Beach to Glendale, Ariz., is a “fan convenience decision.”

Help me understand this, Frank. The city of Glendale approached you and said, “Have we got a deal for Dodgers fans.”

You’re right, no financial motivational incentive in that statement.
