Baylor ignores chatter.(Chicago Tribune)
MIAMI _ Manager Don Baylor might not live in a vacuum, but he refuses to get sucked into all the speculation concerning his job security.
"I don't think about it," he said. "If you sit around and worry about that day in and day out, you can't do what you have to do. I try to get this team ready to play. We've lost our share of close games for whatever reason. I can't worry about [the talk]."
Baylor also said there's no need for general manager Andy MacPhail to offer a vote of confidence, as he did May 17 in Milwaukee.
On that day MacPhail told Baylor that he had "no intention of making a change anytime in the near future."
The two haven't discussed the topic since then.
"The last time I talked to Andy about it, he thought he should come in and say something to me," Baylor said. "That's all it was, hearsay and nothing else. We left it at that."
The Cubs have gone 20-22 since that day, but Baylor doesn't think his players have been distracted.
