Nardi is correct. RFDC is a dope :lol: 8)

I do not see how this convinces anyone that anything chnages. Outside of stereotypical casual fans (not here) loving him what does he bring? Might as well have hired Sandberg or Wood. No difference. Now the clubhouse has their buddy.

All this does is remind me of the Sox hiring Ventura.

So hiring Girardi or Erik Estrada would’ve been guaranteed 90 wins , no more baserunning mistakes , and errors eliminated ?

Respect 90 and Try Not To Suck were empty words.

Now they're not. Theo has his henchman AND his puppet.

He;s gone full bore Billy Beane.

That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Get a bullpen. Theo relied on 2 guys coming off injuries in Strop and Morrow. Terrible signing in Brach, no legit lefty, soft tosser Montgomery. Just on the games the bullpen choked away against St Louis and the Brewers they would have won over 90.

Obviously, game managing isn't an issue. Theo has that covered.

That mock speech sounds like a Jerry Angelo/Teddy Phillips interview.

The Spring Training speech sounds dumb, but but based on the length of some of these (2nd) interviews they probably run out of things to ask.

The speech Theo liked went something like this:

"Be your best selves. October starts in March. Focus and determination will dominate the clubhouse. My job isn't Xs and Os. That's taken care of. My job is to put my foot up your asses when the GM determines it's proper to do so"

Nah, I'm guessing Ross' speech was just a Karaoke of "All the Way" by Eddie Vedder.

Yes...Phillips asked Bruce Aryans to give a mock press conference, even though he had already been a head coach in the NFL and had delivered many.

Sandberg would have been a solid hire a few years ago, as would Girardi. Both had solid material track records.
