August 1, 201313 yr I think everyone needs to calm down regarding Red's decisions. This ENTIRE season is like one 6 month long Spring Training. I think, more than anything, he is trying to figure out who is good at what, who sucks at what, who is useful in which roles, etc. He is trying to find out what everyone is made of, capable of, so heading into a season that has some bright side and potential he knows how to handle each player and decision. Some of you guys are calling him an idiot for making certain decisions, and in the short term you may be right. But I am sure every move has a purpose, because I am certain that every single great manager that he has worked with from Jack McKeon to Ron Gardenhire wasn't lying about his baseball IQ and future as a successful major league manager. Let's judge Red during a season which we are expected to compete for something. I thought this was a LOSER mentality, and that we should win as many games as possible. We don't have time for this nonsense! He is not trying to lose, actually, he's trying to do his best to put us in a winning position as soon as possible Oh, the irony

Let's judge Red during a season which we are expected to compete for something. I don't see why a season where the team is in competition is more appropriate for "judging" him. It's important to see how he manages young talent and what he did with Cishek the other night is extremely aggravating.

August 2, 201313 yr Glad To see the uniform mannequin is getting used for something since it was supposed to show the players which are endless uniform combinations they werr aupposed to wear. I somehow doubt that is the case now.
