Once KW is out of here....we will win more games than we have.

 

Once Gary Ward is out of here....we will be a very good team.

 

Not so sure about Manuel anymore.

yes to the first two... and dont worry about the last.. when the other two are gone things will start to fall back into place again.............. :D

i can't believe manuel is suddenly being thought of as acceptable.

this guy stinks, pure and simple. always has ... always will.  if he stays this team (and we) will regret it.

I agree with you 100% idseer. KW may have put this crap together but it is up to JM to teach the fundamentals and mental aspect of the game. Obviously, he can't get through to any of the Sox starters..... and for some time now.

his troubles came the day he was hired. he has had exactly ONE good HALF season under his belt in all this time. the last half of his "manager-of-the-year" season he managed them to a .500 record (not to mention his post season flop) ... proving the first half of '00 was a total fluke. he's been .500 ever since. he has proven over and over he has no clue to situational managing. he doesn't understand his pitchers OR his runners OR his pinchhitters. and this team is just about the worst at fundamentals. these things are what being a manager is all about!

 

he had nothing to offer from the start and he's learned nothing in all this time.

he HAS TO GO!

I still think Mariah Carey coasts on her rack and a vocal gimmick...So is it, like, true?

oh i dont know.. benching clayton was jm's idea and kw wouldnt hear of it....its little things like that which show the team that the gm can undermine the coaching staff and what difference does your performance make.... if you kiss his ass your in like flint..........kinda makes for a disrupted clubhouse huh.....i would think so anyhow......now jm benching botch the other day and not getting over ridden on that one... just screams kw has lost control............ :D

Not to mention, KW had no control over JM during 1998, 1999, the second half of 2000, and the eventual playoff meltdown :angry:

I'm with you two. Now if those two get canned and the Sox go on a hot streak, then JM will save his job and I won't really care, but I would like Backman up here. Part of me still believes Manuel could be good, if in fact he hasn't been doing things on his own.

 

Still, too many times he doesn't go with small ball and to me I'd much rather have that kind of guy. I know people say he's a small ball guy, but not enough for me. I love the small ball.

I'm really nuetral when it comes to Jerry Manual.  I believe KW has taken away any chance that JM had to do a good job.  It's time to let JM sail the ship for a while and see if he can keep it afloat.

I'm with you. Management gets too much credit when things go well, too much blame when things go poorly. Can't blame Manuel, Ward, KW, etc. for the third-worst hitting team in the league. These players have to do their jobs, and then the entire organization looks smart.

Old? Never you mind the 36-year difference...lol
