E-KT

Why on earth is Padres general manager Kevin Towers starting a public spat with Doug Mirabelli?
When Mirabelli heard about it, he accused Towers of character assassination.
When you're the GM of a team fighting for a pennant, why are you wasting time openly talking about a .180-hitting backup catcher who left your team five months ago?
With all that's going on right now, what is Towers thinking? But who are we to second-guess Towers, who answers to the colorful nickname "KT."
KT must know what he's doing, right? After all, the guy was smart enough to go to MiraCosta College.
