I think you guys should look up the freeway at our buddies in Chavez Ravine. You may note how Donnie Baseball is working on turning his clubhouse full of diva's against him. You never ever hear about that stuff out of Sosh's teams who, by the way are also loaded with star personalities. Thats a big part of managing, keeping the team together. There is only so much this guy can do when the line up refuses to preform with RISP. Or when the bullpen constantly implodes. Or when our 3 hitter decides to go ice cold for a month. Or when our "best" pitcher cant make it out of first inning against the best team in the league. I actually think Scoscia has done a pretty solid job so far with this roster this year. I think if you asked most of us if we would take our record now (early in june) at the beginning of the season most of us would have taken it hoped for some good times down the stretch. Yes, the last week or so has stunk, but we are due for a hot streak as well. The team will continue to compete this year. I dont know, maybe its just me, but I didnt expect much this year anyway. Getting rid of a reliable, and respected manager is not gonna make things better for this team. Side note: the stubborness with veterans is annoying. But I dont think it can go on much longer with Ibanez. No body is perfect.
