I'm not the one who is in a tizzy over 2 losses , calling for heads to roll. I am the one that keeps telling the TERB "experts" (now isn't that a helluva contradiction in terms) to chill. It is YOU who needs the meds.
They need to be stronger and give their players shit when they dont play fundamental baseball
I see. The John Brophy approach. :thumb: A true success story.
These are seasoned accomplished pros who know their business. They need a coach who understands this and it is readily apparent that the players really like Gibbons, appreciate the way they are treated and play hard for him.
I have never been big on Gibby. We're not gonna win a world series with him.
AFA Jacoby is concerned its a case of what have you done for me lately??
A good batting coach should be able to pull his team out of a batting slump.
All I see Jays doing is not executing bunts or moving runners up. Is that JBats, or EE or Josh, or Tulo, or Smoak, or Sanders that you want bunting. If you actually know baseball, you know that this team is not built to play small ball on a consistent basis. They are a slugging team.
They are constantly swinging for the fences when they should be looking to just poke the ball opposite field or up the middle for a single..
The team got very close to the WS last year with the same coaches and mostly the same roster.
I ask again, what specifically are Gibby and the coaches doing wrong this year that was not wrong last year. What wrong things are they telling the players? Which drills and instructions are they not doing this year? What did the coaches do to motivate the players last year that they are not doing this year? I'd really like you to answer this question.
Guaranteed you have absolutely zero idea since you are not around the team and have no idea whatsoever as to what goes on behind closed doors.
I agree with buster. This is on the players.
BTW, who's the guy who hates Pete Walker as pitching coach because he wasn't a star pitcher himself. Pete is doing a great job seeing as our starters have the best stats in baseball.
But it's OK. You guys can keep puffing out your chests by pretending you know more than a professional coaching staff that has spent 30-40 years each in pro ball and are around and working with the players on a daily basis. It is actually laughably delusional on your collective part.
