I'd like to not see him post a negative thought on each of his posts. It's gotten to the point where 98/100 posts of his are negative.

Meh, you're trying to make the FO look stupid when, since the Sale trade, they really have done everything right less Manny.

I didn't like the long drawn out saga either. We do it to ourselves when we speculate for weeks. FO only said they felt good about their chances. We let that become some kind of already done deal. I especially didn't like some FA's slipping past us while we pursued them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny was waiting for the highest offer. Padres swooped in and added $50M to the highest offer.

When I made the post, that was more of what I was focusing on when I said there is no real hope for actual change. You can fire Renteria, but keeping Cooper is defensible. Sorry, it just is. I get your point, but we have to stop acting like the rebuild isn't working. It's working. It's evident. And the execution of the rebuild is a positive mark for the front office.

It was a blown negotiation, end of story. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me amend that and say their biggest test so far and they failed it miserably. Hahn has alot of work to do still and there's plenty reason to doubt he's going to get the players we need to finish this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
