playattheplate Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I don't think it's wise to surround Jack McKeon with all his old fart buddies! They are rubbing off on him...and putting each other to sleep on the bench! This Vibe is probably coming from the bench and effecting the overall Energy of the team! Ozzie Guillen had a pulse over at third! And I liked Admin Rosenberg or whatever! Jack is quite enough OLD FART for all of us! When you surround him with the "Codger Club" he becomes part of them! He needs a couple of hungry, Energentic younger Coaches that would be happy to get in a Big League Dugout! And not a bunch of old guys just riding it out 'til retirement! They're just hanging out!

tealmarlin Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I notice that alot on the bench, you got jack, and then you have some old guy behind him,then behind him you have another old guy. Then you have all the young guys out on the field playing like a bunch of clowns. lol. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishtank Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Pick up Tony Pena, and make him the heir apparent for next year. He will be good with the latin guys on our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2k3Champs Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Wasn't it rumored once that we were supposed to get Daulton as Bench Coach or Head Coach at some time a while back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pierremvp1 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 This whole board is beginning to smell like an old fart. What's next......fire Billy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daulton, who made the famous comment in '97 after a brief observation of the clubhouse, that it was a "Country Club Atmosphere", may light a fire under some these guys' asses!!!! you never know!?

Jiggy Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I think we should release everybody and call up the whole Isotopes squad. :plain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Uhhh... It is shocking how poor we've been executing the smallball game and the other little things that are said veteran coaches and ballplayers pride themselves in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playattheplate Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 This whole board is beginning to smell like an old fart. What's next......fire Billy? 803972[/snapback] Somebody spray us down with Fritz Spritz fast!!! Billy is really a horny, single guy who does nothing but follow the mermaids...God knows whats goin on under that suit! Can't blame him though? but he could take a cold shower and maybe interact with the fans a little too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2k3Champs Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 We don't play small ball like we did in 03. Where are the hit and runs and stolen bases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 We don't play small ball like we did in 03. Where are the hit and runs and stolen bases? 804001[/snapback] In the dugout under the name Juan Pierre as the next batter hits and he puts back his bat and helmet.

fanofthefish Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 uh? I'm not sure what to make of this post. For the most part this coaching staff is under 60. True Dunlap is almost as old as Jack, but the rest of the coaches are not what I would consider old by baseball standards. When a team like Anaheim has a coach in his 70's or the Yankees staff when they used to win were well into their 60's what does age have to do with it? Todays players could stand to learn a lot from these guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Finally! It was only a matter of time before someone uncovered the real problem here. :plain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefanodemais Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I didn't wanna say anything on this topick since the whole board seems to support McKeon and all of his buddies but there really is no connection besides baseball between the players and the coaches and managers. We definetly need someone the players can relate to. Someone more contemporary with their times. Do any of them even speak spanish? It's pretty bad really when the youngest guy there is the bullpen coordinator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playattheplate Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 The reason? cuz of our record! that is my point...our coaching staff may be part of the problem...i trying to figure it out like everyone else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont fire the pitching coach when you have some of the best pitching in the MLB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
