The team felt like they had arrived after last year. Why would a team that didn't make the playoffs think that they had accomplished ANYTHING?! Lol it's a losers mentality and they are all ****ing losers and proud of it

Should have picked up Francona when we had the chance

No, he says nice things no matter what. That's all Glass cares about.

Because it seems like our players don't give a shit, that falls on the manager. How Billy Butler is still batting fourth even though he needs to sit.

Link?

Don't get all emotional and pissed off and start inventing further straw men because you're making nonsensical arguments about a manager.

I agree that starting Crow in the 8th was questionable, and I would have gone to Davis. The year is too early, and he's getting paid too much.

But ML pitchers, no matter who, should be able to throw strikes.

Give things away (walks). Rally to induce a potential DP ball, thus preserving the lead, only to throw the ball away in sub-little-league fashion.

And then end the game in a manner that I've never seen happen at the ML level.

For those of us who are just getting here and did not get to see the game, what does this mean?

The whole team died of AIDs via rape and had to forefit.

Obstruction on Mooseshit to end the game. Popped it up near the plate in foul ground and the catcher ran into his no-hitting ass because he didn't move.

Ball drops, but obstruction had already been signaled. Game over.

He's more like the helpless scapegoat or fallguy ready to be burned for the failures of others.

Unfortunately your logic will prevail in THIS franchise. Other franchises demand that the GM and manager get results.

But you're right, the broken record between the two clubs at the TSC is that "at least you have a team." At least that part of their logic is accurate, we have teams. Anything beyond that is pure chance.

For those who don't think a manager can have an impact, can I just say: Indians pre-Francona and post-Francona.

Well. Three in a row to the twins. Terrific.
