Hunsicker just made it clear that Garner is the interim manager and that they will conduct a full search at season's end for a permanent replacement consistent with directives set forth by the commissioner's office (i.e. we will bring minorities in for interviews).
Who cares? Did they show any sort of improvement over time? No, they sucked his whole tenure, save that one year. If you want to b**** about Jimy never winning anything, you have to be consistent and b**** here too.
I understand that completely and agree that a change had to be made. But just because you have to make a change doesn't mean you have to go out and get a manager who hasn't done squat in his career.
You're right. We should have just gone ahead and plucked Torre from the Yankees. Gosh, Hunsicker is such a fool for making this decision...
RM95, I agree, seems a bit of a band aid, BUT, at least they are trying somthing. This team is .500...that is a disgrace with all the talent it has. Jimy clearly did what he thought was best, just did not work out here. Glad he is gone, should have happened 2 weeks ago....why let the floundering happen as long as it has???? Low expectations = low results. DD
wow. Garner just said he doesn't want a long term committment. That he has other business interests that keeps him busy. This reminds of the scene from Major League: GM: Hey Lou. How would you like to manage the Indians this year?? LOU: Oh I don't know. Lemme think about it. Ill call you back. I have a guy on the other line interested in a set of white walls.
I should've phrased that different, codell. It just seems that the last replacement was similar to this one, and we all know how that worked out. I'd have been for hiring Gaetti, Moore, Cruz, or some other rookie MLB manager. T_J, it's a waste of time for you to respond to me. I've asked Clutch to ban me if we get into it again...I suggest you do the same. Thanks.
