My biggest problem with this situation is that the mgr does not have many real good options to turn to. So, you need help in the rotation and you keep bringing up either has been's, or never were's, or guys that are just not ready yet. Look, I am not a Freddi fan, and yes, I have disagreed with a LOT of his decisions, but to blame this debacle on him is nuts. Like former Dolphins OC, Gary Stevens used to say, "You can't make chicken salad out of chicken sh....!" As far as putting other guys in the lineup, yeah, I guess he could try Ross Gload, or Wes Helms. but does anyone really think that they would spark the team? Let's face it folks, this team is just not that good. Yes, there are some players that have some talent, but they are not consistent enough to do the job day in and day out. Yes, it could be partly coaching, but how long have Hermida and Uggla been around? They are not rookies. They are what they are. As much as I like Cody Ross, his hustle and heart far outweigh his ability. The sad thing about it is everyone keeps talking about in 2112, or whenever the supposed new ballpark is here, that will fix everything. Do we really think that people are going to go out and support THIS type of product, just to be in a state of the art facility? Highly unlikely. Not in Miami. No matter how good the retractable roof is for getting the games in, why would you pay to see this type of product? Bottom line, it starts at the top. Luria and his do-boys are just in it for the money. There is not excuse for putting this product on the field.
