Please elaborate. Attempt to use facts.

 

(I plea for at least an attempt.)

I dislike him in the way that he appears to lack the 'cojones', for lack of a better term.

I believe a manager should say what he truly feels (within reason).

To me, it seems as if he's extremely careful to not say any comments that appear to be uncomfortable to anyone.

 

A favorite line from McKeon, which I believe best exemplifies the attitude I would like:

 

Jack McKeon

“I'm not running a kindergarten here where I have to go ask permission to win a game, ..."

 

 

 

Again, I don't HATE Fredi but that's just what bothers me about him. In the end, as long as they win games it doesn't really matter to me.

Most probably see Fredi as a yes man no matter what well, and that is at least partially correct.

Rabb I didn't think I had to... my thoughts on Fredi have been stated so often but when i have a bit more time I will summarize why I feel Fredi is one the worse managers in franchise history but to give a preview when you try to search for a strength for Fredi you can only go to good relations with players and as of recently that is being overstated. I have nothing against him but hey Loria likes him and that is what counts and he won't butt heads with Beinfest

It's kinda strange I admit but Fredi has grown on me a bit over the 3 years he has been here. Having said this, he still can frustrate the hell out of me with some of his bullpen management.

I don't hate him. But, I just don't like him because he's not a manager, but a Yes man to me.

This is pretty much my feeling, but I would also add that I haven't seen another manager who is worse at bullpen management.

I'm with you Gee... I think he has gotten a bad rap the past few years simply due to the kind of roster he has to work with, meaning, He can't do much in terms of putting plays on, steal attempts, and god forbid bunting that other managers do regularly. btw this is my opinion based on watching the games(practically all of them)
