I would be interested how someone could defend this. Honest question.
The only defense I heard is that it doesn’t matter.
When the hire was announced, everyone was worried how Tony would be able to manage the clubhouse. Turns out not very well.
The defense was that Tony would be a brillant X‘s and O‘s guy (even when that doesn’t matter very much in baseball). So far he has shown us that he didn’t even bother to learn the rules, the written ones at leasr.
He needs to go.
But I am resigned to the fact that he will be the manager until he dies or something. Even then I am not so sure Jerry won‘t pull a Weekend at Bernie‘s.
