So I am one of the several members on this great webiste that can't stand those ridiculous threads that say Fire Fredi, get rid of this guy because he can?t hit with 2 strikes, and others ?get rid of? threads.. Well, since I ?love? those stupid threads so much I thought I would share some feelings and start my own..

 

FIRE BO PORTER! This guy is a complete MORON! How the hell he is coaching third base on a major league team blows my mind! The guy doesn?t even know where he is standing for god sake. If this DUMBASS is coaching third base on this team next season I am going to flip. I mean fans sitting on the couch or in the stands have better judgment then him! Fish4life nevers has to many rants about the teams struggles because I try to be as positive ad I can, but throw that comment out the window and FIRE BO PORTER!!

 

Thoughts?

The rant never said it would make the team better, it simply said the former DB from Iowa should be fired for incompetence. While most former and current 3rd base coaches are somewhat incompetent at times, Bo Porter is at the extreme end. He simply doesn't belong at that posititon.

I agree. The guy is clueless. I noted his last really atrocious mistake, a whole 10 or so days ago.

Regardless of whatever Porter was doing with regard to Jacobs/Uggla on this particular play, can we agree that this idiot has made a multitude of bad decisions to send/not send runners all season long?

 

In the last 40 years, I've rarely seen a 3B coach as totally and absolutely useless. Wherever Fredi found him, he ought to send him back. Bring on Admin Bowa. He may be a total a$hole, but at least he understands that when a LF bare-hands a hard-hit ball he's gonna easily throw you out at the plate and can manage to communicate that simple fact to a runner long before he gets anywhere near 3rd base.

When they should go, its stop, when they shouldnt, its go, and when they players are confused at what it really is they get caught in between.

With al respect due I didn't mean to insult you fish4life but it it such a non-issue

 

How can you say its a non issue considering he alone has cost this teams runs. Sure hes just a coach at third base but like some one else posted, he continues to put up the stop sign and then waves guys in the middle. Which results in them getting caught up in the middle. Like last night the ball hit was cleary a RBI single... The guy had no clue where it was even hit... complete moron

I've been saying it all season, Bo knows not third base.

 

I think in honor of me and this post you should create a FIRE BO PORTER graphic... Use a cross walk guy that just looks clueless! :lol

Thank you sir...

With all this talk of firing I say we bring in an expert... George Steinbrenner (or Donald Trump as a backup). :thumbup

Fire the bat boy. If we had a new bat boy, this team is easily 5 wins better. This kid is clueless out there

Funny, but Bo actually has an effect on the team.

 

Hell, I think yesterday was the first time I actually heard an entire stadium booo a third base coach for not sending a guy. That's how bad Bo has been.

 

First couple months he sent too many guys. Obviously someone talked to him and told him he was being way too aggressive, so for the last few weeks he has been way too passive.

 

He has a bad sense of who is running and who is playing the outfield.

Ahhh Rab.. it seems your one of the few that understand my reason about starting this thread! Thank You! You hit it on the buttom, hes cluess when it comes to defensive postions in the OF.. where the ball is hit, his runners, etc... BO DOES have an impact on this team

Who picked him as the 3rd base coach? Seems somebody is happy with him because he still has a J-O-B

I think the fact that no one has had a problem with Porter until about two weeks ago should say something about the job he's done.
