SACRAMENTO, Calif. Chase Utley Dodgers Jersey . - Sacramento Kings general manager Pete DAlessandro stepped to the microphone and talked about how a franchise that was in disarray a little more than 18 months ago when owner Vivek Ranadive bought the team has been stabilized with new leadership, a change in culture and the start of a new arena.DAlessandro then explained why the coach who was a part of that whole process had been fired.The Kings fired Michael Malone just 24 games into his second season with the team over philosophical differences over the teams style of play.It wasnt about wins and losses, DAlessandro said Monday. I dont really care what our record was. Its really about who we want to be, what we want our identity to be as a team.DAlessandro called Malone a great defensive coach and said this was the right time to make a change to bring in a coach who can take the team to the next level.He said he wants the Kings to play a more free-wheeling offence, which was so successful for the franchise in the early 2000s.Philosophically we needed to make a decision, DAlessandro said. What are we going to do, how are we going to play.Malone went 39-67 after being hired in June 2013 by Ranadive. Malone was hired before DAlessandro in what was considered an unusual order of events. DAlessandro said his decision to come to Sacramento was an endorsement of Malone but now he will get the opportunity to hire his own coach.The Kings went 28-54 in Malones first season and missed the playoffs for an eighth straight year. This season got off to a better start with the team winning nine of its first 14 games.But the Kings have fallen into a tailspin after star centre DeMarcus Cousins was sidelined with viral meningitis. Sacramento has lost seven of nine games without Cousins and is tied for 10th in the Western Conference with an 11-13 record.I would be lying if I said I didnt feel that it was partially my fault, Cousins said. In reality it isnt, but me personally I feel like it is. Me being out, us losing some games. I feel like I played a part in it.Cousins practiced Monday and is still day to day. The team will play its first game under interim coach Tyrone Corbin on Tuesday night at home against Oklahoma City.One of Malones biggest successes was the way he got the most out of Cousins, an ultra-talented big man whose emotions often got the best of him before Malones arrival last year.Cousins said he was surprised when he found out the news late Sunday night on Twitter.Who wasnt? I think this surprised everybody, he said. Usually with situations like this, you kind of know its about to happen. This just happened.DAlessandro will not commit to Corbin lasting the rest of the season, saying only that he will have the full support of the organization. Corbin went 112-146 in three-plus seasons as coach of the Utah Jazz and was not offered a contract after last season.Corbin began to implement change at his first practice Monday.Its difficult for players to change mid-stride, Corbin said. You have to not confuse them and get them thinking. Where we have ideas about changes and things, we have to gradually get those changes so theyre not thinking too much out there on the floor.The firing is the first major setback in Ranadives tenure. He was welcomed as a saviour when he bought the team from the Maloof family in 2013 and prevented the team from moving to Seattle.The Kings have already broken ground on a $477 million arena that is expected to open downtown for the 2016-17 season. But he has been unable so far to reverse the losing trend that followed a stretch of eight straight playoff berths.The message is were not done, DAlessandro said. Were going to keep doing everything there is. Were going to keep making tough decisions. Thats what were here for.DAlessandro said assistant coach Chris Jent mutually agreed with the team to also step down. Babe Herman Jersey . - UFC 178, previously announced for Sept. Yasiel Puig Jersey . The team also announced Tuesday that the Braves will wear a commemorative patch on the right sleeve during the season. The patch, shaped like home plate, carries the number 715, Aarons autograph and a "40th Anniversary" banner. http://www.baseballdodgersproshop.com/enrique-hernandez-dodgers-jersey/ . -- A lawyer for the fiancee of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez asked a judge Friday to throw out perjury charges, saying Shayanna Jenkins did not wilfully lie as she was bombarded with 1,630 questions over two days before a grand jury.If you go back over the past five seasons, the Toronto Blue Jays have been one of the top home run slugging teams in the American League. Part of that is due to talent and part is due to the ballpark they play in. Yet, despite being right up there with home run leaders every season over that span, they havent been able to end their post-season drought that extends back to their last appearance in 1993. Since 2009, the Blue Jays have finished in the top five in home runs every season. 2009 was the peak year for round-trippers over the last five seasons in the junior circuit with 2,560. The Yankees led the league with 244 homers, well above the league average of 183 per team. The Blue Jays finished with 209. 2009 was the only season in the last five that the team with the most homers in the American League won the Fall Classic, as the Yankees beat the Phillies for their fifth title in 14 seasons. The Yankees also led in 2011 with 222 homers and 2012 with 245. They also hit over 200 homers every season in the last five except 2013, when they were devastated by injuries. Over the last five years, the Blue Jays have hit 209 homers in 2009 (4th), 257 in 2010 (1st) , 186 in 2011 (5th), 198 in 2012 (5th) and 185 in 2013 (4th). One team that has benefitted a little bit from a power surge has been Oakland. In 2011, the As only hit 114 homers. In 2012, they jumped to 195 (6th) in the A.L. and followed that by climbing to third in the league last season with 186. Of course, they won the American League West each of the last two campaigns. I guess what Im trying to say is that the Blue Jaays could and should sacrifice some of their power to boost the starting rotation. Carl Crawford Jersey. Under new hitting coach Kevin Seitzer, the Jays are going to attempt to use the whole field and just drive the ball into the gaps as opposed to just trying to pull the ball for home runs. Trying a different approach and attempting to cut down the strikeouts cant hurt. There has been a lot of talk about home runs diminishing over the past few years. As I mentioned off the top, in 2009 there were 2,560 home runs hit. The next year, the total dropped off to 2,209 - a decrease of 351. From that point on, though, over the past three seasons, home runs are on the rise again. In 2013, the total was 2,504 in the American League - just 54 off the 2009 total. There is another pitcher out there on the rumour mill that the Blue Jays might take a run at. The Chicago Cubs are reportedly trying to get right hander Jeff Samardzijas name on an extension but if he balks, they could consider dealing him over the winter since he could become a free agent after 2015. Samardzija is a bit of a late bloomer at 28 years old. In just his second year as a full-time Cubs starter in 2013, he went 8-13 on a bad ball club with a 4.34 ERA. But hes got what everyone is looking for; durability - 213.2 innings last season - and ability to strike guys out with 214 against just 78 walks. The trouble for the Jays is that Arizona, Washington and the Pittsburgh are also rumoured to be after him, and all three appear to have deeper farm systems flush with the kind of talent the Cubs would want in return.
