Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 From Wednesday's Tribune: "The players had the opportunity to give all they had. There were no shackles on anybody. They were free to play. Whether they did or not, that's up to them. That's not up to me. I've created an atmosphere for them to perform. Some did and some didn't." I think there's nothing I can add.

He's right of course, but he should add that he had all the opportunity in the world to manage better and didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I won't say Jerry isn't right on this. I just think if they aren't playing you need to get out and rip someone a new one. Or replace that someone with a minor leaguer and make a point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPinStripes Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Notice how when this team loses it's NEVER HIS FAULT?????? What environment did he create? One with over 100 diffrent lineups, over managing and fallling asleep when we need a pinch runner or hitter? Yes, the pitcher gives up the homer, the batter K's, but if you use Brian f***ing Daubach in late innings along with Billy Koch and Flash more then an inning, it's on the manager too, because he should know damn well what will happen. Not every player is an all star. Here's another reason to fire him yesterday. I dont want to hear dumb quotes like this from a bad manager that shouldnt have lasted this long.
