Who? I’m no insider so I have no idea what turmoil was happening. I did happen to call this team a regional team when everyone else was saying they were done. I could see the potential… I’m just glad they figured things out and started playing up to their potential.
No… I’m asking…
Who was the cancer? Who was kicked off the team? I didn’t hear anything about this. If it can’t be made public send me a DM with the scoop as I am totally out of the loop.
I don’t remember hearing as much about locker room issues as last season. Last year’s issues aren’t really disputable. Brad has talked about them on the radio. Jay even mentioned them with Scott yesterday.
Dude’s dad is the only messy stuff I heard this year, and I think that’s a testament to how off his rocker that dude is. I’m about as far away from being an insider as possible, so if I’m hearing about your antics, you’re f’ing up.
Who is “dude’s dad”?
Yep. First person who mentioned him to me was a friend with no social media or message board accounts. Just happened to have a conversation with the guy (who he didn't know from Adam) and walked away wide eyed.
Genuinely hope Durke lands somewhere a good ways off, so he can control his own business.
I’m no insider but I’ve been around this program since the Boulanger days. Although I was young and don’t remember much from Mike’s years I do remember Tony getting hired as I was in my teens. So all of my baseball “knowledge” came from watching and learning from him, his decisions and the way he managed. These last few years have been very different. Last year was so frustrating to watch. This year you could see something was different but there were time when Deggs made me want to pull my hair out. So be it. He is who he is as a coach and we are who we are as a team. It’s not changing. Even though it was different from Tony doesn’t mean it was wrong. We just were not used to it. We will all have to adapt to his style. I had my doubts and questioned his decisions just as much as anyone. I’m here to eat crow and I’ll enjoy it. He definitely proved me wrong and I hope he continues to do so. Geaux Cajuns
So where has Durke landed? With all the offers he had im shocked he hasnt been picked up yet. Oh wait. I forgot he's going to the Cape.
I've never chimed in on "Degg's style", so it's an easy opinion to have as the man brings us into a regional, but I enjoy it. Whether the decision he's making on base running, at the plate, or creating a lineup is right or wrong in the moment, none of us can say it's boring. And that's what I really like about it.
