Toronto Blue Jays assistant general manager Tony LaCava wont be heading to Baltimore after all. Stan Mikita Jersey. According to the Baltimore Sun, the 50-year-old turned down the Orioles offer to become the clubs general manager on Tuesday. LaCava said that his decision stemmed from the fact that he wanted to remain with the Blue Jays. "This was about the Toronto Blue Jays more than it is anything about the Baltimore Orioles. The Orioles were classy in everything they did, and I think they are going to go down the right path," LaCava told The Baltimore Sun. "For me, it was how much I love the Toronto Blue Jays and I really, really treasure my relationship with my general manager, Alex Anthopoulos, and I really want to see this through with him. He created a great atmosphere to work up there, along with president Paul Beeston, and it is very hard to leave them." With the free agent period starting in one day, the Orioles are the only team in baseball that does not have a top baseball executive in place, after Andy MacPhail stepped down in October after over four years as president of baseball operations. LaCava, who was a finalist in the past for GM jobs in Seattle and Pittsburgh, seems to be content where he is at this point in his career. "I am working in a great place, a job that I love," LaCava said. "Its just as simple as that." Keith Magnuson Jersey.

Fans were upset after the captain of the American League squad said he would choose a hometown player for his four-man team, but instead bypassed Royals star Billy Butler and went with Prince Fielder of the Tigers, Mark Trumbo of the Angels and Jose Bautista of the Blue Jays. Fielder won the competition, and the AL routed the National League. Cano wound up going 0 for 10, though, and each failure was met by cheers. Cano brushed off the cold reception, but others werent so kind to Kansas City. Several national TV broadcasters, radio hosts and columnists called the fans everything from "jerks" to "classless." "Robinson Cano certainly picked people he thought should be on there," Commissioner Bud Selig told the Baseball Writers Association of America on Tuesday. "While I understand Kansas City and I understand the whole Billy Butler thing, I really felt very badly last night." Union head Michael Weiner thought the level of jeering was not justified. "It struck me that it moved a little bit past traditional, good-natured booing, particularly for an event like that, and got into another area," Weiner said. "But Robinson Cano grew up in the Dominican Republic, plays in the Bronx, plays for the Yankees. Hes going to be fine." Cano said that he was prepared for a frigid reception, even though it appeared to rattle him every time his father, Jose, delivered a pitch that he popped up, fouled off or grounded out. Yankees teammates Curtis Granderson and CC Sabathia even interrupted the proceedings to give father and son and a pep talk, but it didnt do a whole lot of good. "It was interesting," Granderson said. "It was one of those things where once it started, everyone else caught on, and the performance that Robbie was able to do just added to it. But its like Robinson said, were the Yaankees, we get booed all the time. Corey Crawford Jersey" Yankees star Alex Robinson sent Cano a text message of encouragement -- "He said, you know, hes a guy thats looking out for me," Cano said -- while several others came to his defence. "Im sure it happens in every ballpark, where theres the hometown guy didnt make it, and in Robbies defence, its hard to pick three guys," White Sox slugger Adam Dunn said. "It would be hard, man, and its kind of a tough spot to be put in." Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun questioned the practice of having players pick the teams. "I understand why they have a captain, but I also feel like it puts guys in uncomfortable positions," he said, adding that hes certain David Wright of the Mets will be chosen next year, when the All-Star game is played at Citi Field in New York. "You dont want to deal with what Robinson dealt with," Braun said. The passionate reaction by Royals fans created plenty of drama, though, particularly in an event that often becomes stale by the time the first round grinds to a conclusion. Viewership for ESPN was up 3 per cent over last year, and in New York, there was a 10 per cent increase as hometown fans tuned in to see Cano flame out. There were more than 800,000 Twitter and Facebook comments throughout the night, twice the volume of last year, and Twitters top 10 trends worldwide were related to the derby when the final round began. "Kansas City fans are better than that, but I dont get on them," said Chris Berman, who called the derby for ESPN. "I get it, but the three guys he picked were the three top guys." Butler, who made his first All-Star team this season, did his best to deflect questions about the relentless booing. He said that he appreciated Kansas City fans for their support, and that he spoke to Cano after the derby to make sure everything was fine. "There are no hard feelings. There never was," Butler said. "Me and Robbie are great friends, were great competitors, and love playing each other." ' ' '
