Hardball in Chavez Ravine

Wednesday is Brutus Day. The Romans called it the Ides of March, which was when Marcus Brutus rubbed out his boss, Julius Caesar. Now it’s a celebration of all sorts of back-stabbing on the job. Like, did you notice the daggers at the state GOP convention? (The governor walked away, but his chief of staff, Democrat Susan Kennedy, might want to keep looking over her shoulder.) Nowhere has there been as much intrigue as in the Dodgers organization, which under owners Frank and Jamie McCourt, at right, has seen more employee exits than memorable wins on the field.
