It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

The Tigers were predicted for 61 wins, dumbass.

Hate to tell ya this "Amigo", but that is sort of the essence of how life works.

9-22 is a 66 win pace.

Yeah, I messed up that number...still Hinch was the best regarded manager on the market....who wouldn't want him.

How do you measure a manager in order to "regard" him?

They also talk about managers when the manager is a drooling, addled, blubbering old fool who isn't exactly 100% sure where his is most of the time unless it's Thirstys Tavern. I heard he tried to order a Seven and Seven from Eaton last week during the 5th.

Penis size.

Great post! That guy gets it

2-Apr Failing to make review time window, Leury starts opening day, no pinch hitter for him late.

4-Apr Bullpen usage - Bummer never used in close game

5-Apr Bullpen usage - Foster blows game, Hendricks warms but never comes in. Several times could have PH for Leury or Hamilton, not done

7-Apr Bullpen usage - Foster comes in with Bummer and Hendricks needing work, gives up 7 runs.

11-Apr Couple of poorly thought out bunts, pinch running for Mercedes early left no backup Ofs

13-Apr Williams hits 5th, Lamb hits 7th, Mercedes benched against Bieber. Hendricks not used in the 10th.

27-Apr keeps Lucas Giolito in when it was obvious to everybody that he was toast. "We were looking for a single there." Insists postgame that he was awake.

5-May Messes up double-switch, calls for Leury to steal 2nd with the freaking AL pitcher on 3rd base, negating the possibility of a double steal. Leury is out. Hamilton bats with man on 3rd instead of pinch hitting (LOL), rulebook read to him by reporter.

I get that some of you love TLR, especially since he stands for everything Bernstein doesn't. You don't need to let that.blind you. Anybody that knows a lick about baseball can see that TLR has been terrible. A manager shouldnt potentially cost the team this many games this early in the season.

I'm honestly surprised people defend him at this point. I actually had high hopes for La Russa from a tactical managing standpoint. Unfortunately, he has been an absolute trainwreck. Manager typically don't make a huge difference to the team's record if they are above average or below average. But when you are making monumental and baffling mistakes on a regular basis, it can really hurt your team. Managers aren't usually this bad.

IMO he's cost them 1-2 wins and we arent even 1/3rd of the season on. That is significant

The Cubs got the most highly regarded manager on the market when they hired Maddon and all we here about his tenure is that he was terrible and the Cubs won in spite of him .

You follow a lot of Detroit baseball ? Im guessing Hinch had made a couple moves that cost them wins by now. Just like all managers.

And of course if the White Sox had <insert manager here> , all those moves wouldve been corrected , he wouldnt have made any " mistakes" and the Sox would be sailing right along.

They might have the worst roster in MLB history.

I’m not sure why you view that as a defense. This isn’t just a couple of bad plays. That’s a lot this far into the season.
