This team reflects their leader

[nate]

Lifeless and apathetic.  Just going through the motions.  If it isn't obvious over the last 3+ years that nothing will change until he is gone then I don't know what would convince you.  He had a great run but should have been gone two seasons ago.

[Mark68]

Yep.

[bdavis621]

Exactly, just look at Scioscia. He acts like he could care less.

I think you mean that Sosh acts like he couldn't care less.

Corny?

 Scioscia will always have a career to fall back on...

first Seattle series win; tip your cap and turn the page

 

now on to the post game lasagna

I am tired of tipping caps. Tipping caps is for LOSERS!!!!!!

[EE_]

It's too bad our billionaire owner doesn't seem to understand the simple concept of counterparty risk.

A guaranteed contract is a great example of counterparty risk. There's a reason why 10 year guaranteed contracts are never given to managers. No possible upside, plenty of downside.

Is that why your avatar is a hat?

Considering how the Doggies are doing.  If we let him go, he might be back in that uniform pretty quickly.

9 and ****ing 15.

The Dodgers are .500.  They are infinitely better than us.

Great, less chance of us rehiring him.

[bdavis621]

No, I never added the hat to my profile. I am just so damn frustrated right now. Not only because the team is losing but that it hasn't performed the last three years. Big changes need to be made and Arte apparently is doing nothing.

[bdavis621]

Let him go to the Dodgers I don't care anymore. I want to find a manager who will get the most out of his players and Scioscia certainly isn't anymore.

Arte opened his wallet. What else should he do? Be a Dan Snyder or Jerry Jones and try and run the team himself?

[YESWECAN]

AMEN.

For what it's worth I have been saying this for years!

Those of you who travel and/ or have coverage to watch Halo games on the opponent's network will hear about Scosia's dour looks as he is peering out of the dugout. Impacts players and umpires!

I don't get how Arte lets this continue ad nauseum...............................

[bdavis621]

Scioscia at one time did have heart. I remember when he used to yell at the umpire and get his team riled up. Unfortunately something has happened and he has become extremely docile.

[mp170.6]

I don't see the point in waiting to see if Scioscia can turn the ship around. 

 

2011 and 2012 were defined by dismal failures in April while the Rangers and A's got off to a great start.  The way Pujols is looking he might be a lost cause for 2013, so there's even less breathing room this season.  Who knows if Hamilton figures it out.  Who knows if Weaver gets his velocity back.  Who knows if the bullpen gets its act together. 

 

These problems are not overcome by "one game at a time" nonsense.  These are things that could affect the franchise for years to come if other players don't feel motivated to step up and fill the gaps. 

[Stradling]

So you're saying all our players hate the Angels and want to be on their precious Dodgers?

[Angel Oracle]

Maybe some of it is overdone, but how the h_ll else are we supposed to feel with this stinking 9-15 start?
