Where do you get him demanding these players, Ronnie? Never heard that, felt he made it his place in the braintrust to do so.... During his renure he was smart, well spoken, and had the respect of his players. But he did not look himself in the dugout the last month, Makes you wonder what else was doing on....

Sorry to see him go. If he was fired, it was a mistake. If it was of his own choice, good luck to him. Time to clean house of some of these players.... especially some who they will have to eat some contracts on (DiceK, Pap, Lackey, Drew,) . Some have to realize their time has come (Wake, Tek) I'm prone to give Crawford one more year, but the lasting image of that last ball dropping in front of him sticks in my craw.....a ball 80% of starting outfielders would have had with a dive. Also sorry to hear a story circulating that Youk had become a bad egg in the clubhouse, especially since he got hurt....

A lot of issues, so for them to digest it overnight and fire him is a bad move, at least from this fan's view.
