Last-place Diamondbacks clean house. Fraudulent 1988 NL MVP Kirk Gibson is interim manager. Disastrous mid-'90s Mets reliever Jerry DiPoto is interim GM.

That's 2 managers they've canned since dumping Wally Backman.

I become increasingly thankful they dumped him every day.

Well, they dumped Wally Backman almost six years ago, so having two firings in that span isn't so unusual. In a similar six-year span, the Mets fired Davey Johnson, Bud Harrelson, Jeff Torborg, and Dallas Green.
