fathom Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Just now, Tony said: That’s the other thing with Ricky and his lineups, which speaks to him not being a winning manager. He wants to keep everyone feeling good, not disrupt anything, he takes the long game approach, rather than making quick adjustments when needed. He simply isn’t a manager of a club trying to actually win something. You had an awesome post about this earlier today. I agree, he has no sense of trying to actually compete. It’s quite disturbing.

Obviously I’m not suggesting he should pull a Parkman and overreact to everything, but you definitely have to be willing adjust a bit more in real-time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday you said Grandal fades late in the season. If this is what he looks like at the start of the season, what does the fade look like? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He desperately needs to find one more pitch to keep hitters off that change up. Or possible not throw everything up out of the zone. He was doing better earlier but went high for every pitch but one for the walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just the feeling other teams are more about winning/results than loyalty, stability, or the players' comfort level/clubhouse chemistry (whatever that gets a losing team and franchise that hasn't rediscovered how to embrace that mentality, like the Royals younger players 5-6 years ago.)
