The source spoke to the MTL Keeper League blog on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the subject.
The Fireballs, owned and managed by Rick, are in the midst of one of the worst seasons in league history. At 1-9-2, they are the favorite to get last place and pay the fee. The Fireballs have been outscored an unbelievable 139-83 this season, including 62-31 during a current five-game losing streak.
Rick has been as dormant as the Mauna Loa volcano this season, leading fans and media to question what is going on. Why hasn't he tried to improve an absolutely dreadful keeper situation? Why wasn't he active in trades when he started out 1-4-1? Why has he only made 15 moves, second fewest in the league?
And, one of the most pressing questions... has Rick given up? Check out these two screenshots.
No league activity since last Friday - four days!
And, below, an unset lineup during a limited gameday!
We will have more on this story if and when it develops or we get comment from Rick.
