Ricky had his faults and he wouldn't be my choice to lead this team, but I think I'd take just about anyone over TLR at this point. For someone who is supposed to manage the clubhouse well and have his players ready to play, he's failing at both of those aspects right now. Throw in the weird infatuation with hitting Leury in the 2 and 3 spot and it's just too much for me. Expand Yeah the energy isn’t there. That’s starts with the manager. Atleast it seemed like Renteria brought that to the clubhouse. Not saying that we bring him back but if they go in a different direction maybe a younger manager would be better to inject some life into this team.

Expand I think the players lost faith in their manager or there some kind of rift going on between management, the front office and ownership. There’s definitely something going on that’s causing a distraction. Edited April 23, 2022 by maloney.adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Yeah that slider to Jeffers was bad, but the TA throw and Abreu's throw were way worse. Graveman made the pitch to get out of that inning and the defense fucked it up for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
