Daddy Dix Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 What really pisses me off is his obvious lack of preparation/research. If he was prepared and actually knew what he was talking about I think he'd be more than adequate. yes, i was going to add that too. He seemingly did zero prep work and just freestyled the whole thing simply because "hey, i used to play so I must have the edge over this Rich Waltz guy...." When you had someone as ridiculously knowledgeable and well-prepared as Tommy to replace your ignorance and sheer laziness is NOT easy to hide. Rich was just boiling last night in stretches and tossed some pointed barbs at Preston that I'm pretty sure he didn't even notice. I really hope he pulls Preston aside and at least shows him how much prep work actually needs to go into that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Beinfest Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 Preston even makes @Dr Beinfest and [uSER=860]@el penguino[/uSER] agree, wow And I realized I hijacked his thread after the fact. Sorry, pengoon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSN Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Something no one seemed to mention last night... Preston said that hitting coaches would tell him that a pop up to 2B with a runner on 3rd & less than 2 outs was way better than a hot smash to the 3B. Did anyone catch that after Ozuna's AB in the 8th inning? yes, I heard him say that and it made no sense so I thought I had just misunderstood him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyggyMarlin Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I loved it when Rich busted him for stealing a Tommy LaSorda joke and Prez says, "I was just making it up..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Ready Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I kind of like Preston.... I think he's going to become a very good analyst. He's funny and insightful which is all he needs to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I expect Waltz to leave as soon as his contract is up. He probably hates working with shitty broadcasters like Wilson and is jaded after Tommy was fired. Would you really want to continue working for an employer who behaved so unprofessionally to a beloved co-worker of yours who was there for 19 years? And Waltz is good enough that he probably doesn't need this job anymore. He's probably already packing his bags. What a fucking mess FS Florida created. Who has been running things since they hired Preston and Pavano? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Or Charlie Steiner. Even jack buck. Charley is not leaving the Dodgers. It is his dream job. Jack Buck's corpse is not leaving the Cardinal organization. Joe Buck might if he is thrown enough cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
