Or Bad Ausmus

By the way, does anyone actually believe that Ausmus has the final say on whether Pujols plays a lot or not this season?

It is a horrible position to be in as a sports fan.  People need to not mistake hatred for the Dodgers with indifference to the Red Sox.  I fu*cking HATE the Red Sox.  The shitty history between the Angels and the Sox.  The garbage chowd head fans and their continued bullshit whining about faux demons (as if Boston is still haunted by a lack of championships) the douche bag players they had for years (it’s actually less bad now in this category.  Probably then it’s ever been as long as I’ve been a baseball fan) They’re extremely hatable. 
The Dodgers are next level tho if you’re an Angel fan. Most Angel fans are in so cal.  So that impacts this.  That tweet above notes it well.  But the fans.  Holy shit the fans.  They’re every bit as entitled as the Red Sox fans or the Yankees fans.  They brag about stupid shit like announcers.  RELENTLESSLY.  They pretend that the organization has some sterling championship pedigree.  Even tho almost all of their failed championship bids were like before WW2 or some shit. They talk about their “tradition” like it’s unrivaled in sports.  Even tho the team has changed names like fuc*king 3 times.  Dope tradition.  Just like the Yankees.  Their fuc*king current logo is a rip off.  It’s all bullshit and the fans will never ever shut the f*uck up about it.  Also, they make any stadium experience whether at home or away.  Absolutely miserable.  It’s absolutely a thing with a sizable number of Dodger fans to basically be gang bangers at a baseball game.  And the organization embraces it ! They didn’t do shit ever about the fans until they finally had to be shamed into it when that Giants fan got turned into a vegetable.  
And if they’re not doing that they’re doing gay passive aggressive shit like that Pantone whatever group does.  Unfurling giant flags at opposing teams stadiums.  I can’t think of other groups of fans in NA sports that do that.  
Also, let’s talk about the team.  The Dodgers have been pieces of shit in the international market for decades.  Literally.  On this roster a bunch of their bitch players whined in the media about Ohtani signing here.  Like he disrespected them or some shit.  More entitlement.  I mean could rage about the Dodgers forever.  I’m probably semi articulate here so I’m going to stop.   But fu*ck them forever.  I hate the Dodgers more then any other team in sports.  If Tdawg makes his move west he’ll forget about the goddamn Red Sox. 
 

mentioned this earlier in the thread.  it has absolutely been discussed.  the plan is already set.  We don't know what it is yet, but it's out there.  My guess is that we're not going to like it.  

I think it was probably discussed at length, including asking Ausmus how he would approach it. I wonder if that's also one of the reasons why you didn't see an inexperienced guy like Chavez didn't get the nod.
Do keep in mind he had to deal with another future HOF in Cabrera, as well as a borderline hof guy in Victor Martinez, as their skills started to diminsh so it's not like he's going in to this situation with no experience.

He is an evil, evil man.  

Of course, we have culpability.  What do you want to do now?  
I know we disagree on this but can we at least agree that Bolton is POS?

Bolton would start WW3 tomorrow if he could.  That is not hyperbole. 

Bolton is possibly the worst thing Trump has done in office.  Even worse than Sessions.  More people will die because he is back.  Possibly millions more.

he already plays SS for your favorite team.  

What kind of Indian food are you having? Bobby Jindal, or Elizabeth Warren?

We have a winner, simple and to the point.  

Bolton.

First bad move, and AO is going to shout out

I don't even know you anymore. Anyone who is rooting for the Red Sox deserves to be spayed or neutered.
 
Look at the hats.

Torre was a failure until he won four titles with the Yankees.

one of my concerns but I am sure there have been conversations about this very thing and if it ends up as such then it's per a discussion of Eppler and Ausmus.  
We have to keep in mind that a lot more of the manager's directives will be coming from the front office.  

No manager we brought in would bench Pujols.  He is owed 28 million.  He will be playing.  Get used to it.  The bigger question is where Ausmus bats him in the lineup.  Hopefully no higher than 6th assuming no bats will be signed to bump him even lower. I'd bat him 7th but I'm sure he won't start lower than 6th to begin the year. 

Nothing like another guy to manage the halos to another quiet post season. 

All this crap show so we can have the reincarnation of Mike Scioscia. It will be the same crap all over again, might as well kept the real Scioscia, I hope it is a short contract or I will probably be died the time they get to the World Series again, oh what a fucked up morning. I wanted some new blood in here not the same crap.
