November 3, 20214 yr Just now, fathom said: Makes the lack of Hahn press conference even stranger The real Boss is already talking (TLR)
November 3, 20214 yr Feel like we should be focusing our energy on attracting coaches and personnel that can turn guys like guys like mid-season Joc and Soler into the post season producers they turned into. And also the oft-repeated issues with our ground ball launch angle philosophy. Status quo with the staff is frustrating, blah.
November 3, 20214 yr Well maybe TLR can hire his vet friend to tell Duncan's kid about shifting. They are seriously going to blow this window on TLR and his ancient ways.

Kimbrel - doesn't seem like a move he'd have made though. Even called out the FO for it during the postseason. Saying "I'm good with Goodwin" - that does sound more like him.

It’s been stated in multiple occasions that TLR, Hahn and Kw had a consensus weeks before deadline that Kimbrel was the guy they wanted.

I don't know how we can look at what happened in the 2nd half and in the playoffs and think that there's nothing wrong with our coaching staff.

November 4, 20214 yr I was hoping LaRussa would retire, Hahn get fired, and a new GM be given the authority to pick the next Manager and staff. I guess none of that will happen now.

I guess none of that will happen now. Maybe Hahn would have left w frustration that TLR was not only named but retained. Maybe there was no where for Hahn to go. But I don't think JR would fire Hahn.
