Hargrove Resigns and Wins or Wins and Resigns

As a Seattle Mariners fan, you learn to expect the unexpected. But this is all new and turned upside down, and though I don't exactly get it, I get the fact that Hargrove clearly has more going on inside his noggin' (and several other vital organs) than we likely knew.

But perhaps you want to know what I'm talking about:

Wikipedia / On July 1, 2007, Hargrove resigned his position as manager of the Mariners, saying in a prepared statement that his "passion has begun to fade" and it would not be "fair to myself or the team" to continue. Bench coach John McLaren was named as Hargrove's replacement, effective July 1. Hargrove managed his final Major League game on that same day, a 2-1 ninth inning comeback victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
and
Hargrove Stuns Mariners / Mike Hargrove resigned as the manager of the Seattle Mariners yesterday, saying his “passion has begun to fade” for baseball even though his team is the hottest club in the majors.
So, Mike... tell us... what gives? Were you just waiting to have the hottest team in baseball or what?

Blessings regardless.
