I would add Leury Garcia to that statement. He is misused the most by Tony. From batting him leadoff to three positions in three days.

Fire Katz. Fire them all. What bull shit

Too bad it didn't last longer.

So Katz is new with Tony, Menechino is a hold over.

Who was his hitting coach? Let's bring him back.

I agree. I think the relevance becomes is it the roster, the injuries, or the way players are being used. Hahn put together a roster that could have won this division. Injuries and Tony destroyed it. I would much rather have Hahn and no Tony than Tony and no Hahn. I doubt we'll get no Tony and no Hahn. Players can't be overpaid. Throughout the CBA the overriding sentiment was higher player salaries. Garcia is fine, everyone else should be making more. Fuck JR and his profits.

It didn't take long for the stench to get to him.

Yet, so many people were expecting this team to win a division title, apparently including Hahn.

Exactly. Yet so many still picked them to win. I was shocked at the prediction thread. I had them 3rd. Where did you have them?

From Vegas to Soxtalk, knowledgeable folks picked this roster to easily win the division. That's about the only defense for Hahn that feels valid. This roster is under performing, which I put on Tony, injuries, and players. The non impact deadline is also on Hahn.

First is open. Just walk him.

Well shit. Just when he was pitching well.

Which is about half right. But for the third year they go into the off season needing to fill holes at RF, 2nd, and SP. Now possibly LF, C, and 3rd If we didn't think it was a playoff team we wouldn't be disappointed.

Do we really believe that Tony, Rick, Kenny etc just allow him to coach whatever philosophy and approach *he* wants? Position coaches get their marching orders from someone. At the least, this is as much Tony's fault as Menechino.

And comes down without an injury

Unless the organization told him to coach that. You give a position coach a game plan and they run with it. I can't believe everyone above him just lets him do his thing.

I cued that one up with bases loaded and no outs. Fucking easy to be predict.

You could be the next hitting coach

Big hit here

Hall of Famer on the mound.

Someone has to. Nothing but singles. Six of them.
