There is much debate as to whom should go and whom should stay. If you were suddnely the new owner who would you axe immediately?

 

Lucchino-

 

Cherrington-

 

Valentine-

 

Bogar-

 

Niemann-

 

Tuck-

 

All the other coaches-

 

Bill James-

 

Carmine-

 

All of the above-

Bye bye.

LL

Ben.

 

 

Keep BV on a short leash.

The whole crew on Elks list. Anybody that sat around and either actively promoted activity that resulted in this disaster or passively sat by with one hand on their balls and the other on their ass needs to be gone.

 

LL on NESN right now. The closest he will come to a change in direction coming up is a suggestion from him that maybe they will have to take a longer view on this team....followed by the usual claims that there is no quit in this team. Apparently LL does not recognize that the team quit long ago.

If Bobby comes back on a short leash, then any of the coaches that are not talking to him need to be shown the door. They know who they are. A manager has to be able to pick his own coaches.

The entire medical and conditioning staff needs to go as well. To me they seem as clueless about helping their players get through a season as McClure was about getting pitchers through a season.

 

Granted in baseball there is little that conditioning coaches can control. They have no power to do anything. They are almost glorified towel holders. That said, I see no effort whatsoever to help players actively mitigate their known issues. There is surely every chance that I am just not seeing what is going on behind the scenes and it may well be happening all the time.

 

Was Ortiz regularly stretching his Achilles before games and workouts? I have no idea. Has there been a good deal of attention given to mitigating known player issues.....some attention....none at all? No idea. If you even lose one player the calibre and importance of an Ortiz for a significant length of time, it is an issue.

BTW....Bring Friedman, no matter at what price and start over, and please... let him take all the decisions.
