The Fire Don Mattingly Thread

Featured Replies

He's still starting Stallings with Rogers [and also for the majority of games] despite the two of them not having that "connection" that Rogers may or may not have with the other catchers.

Don really needs to do something good to show everyone he's not a stupid guy. 

He's had almost two decades to do this, he's not going to do it now.

So what's the reason a guy like him be a MLB manager ?

because he was a good MLB player, and teams think that makes a good manager.

I'd love for someone to ask him why he hit Avi Garcia 4th.

"he's our guy and we believe in him. We've all seen what he's been able to do in the past, and with some of his at bats, you can tell that he's close."

Take the 12 wins from the Nats and split that in half, this team would actually be 35-50. That's the real team right there.

Nah those are real wins

you can't just go halfsies with the Nats as lots of teams tend to be over .500 against the bottomfeeders or else all teams would just be .500 teams and Manfred's head would explode with tiebreakers that would somehow always guarantee the Yankees, Dodgers, Red Sox, Cardinals were always in the playoffs.

What?

Why don't the Nats wins count?

Cause they suck and make us look good when we're not good. 😭

The wins still count. There's been countless times over the years that the Marlins played awful teams and couldn't beat them. Being able to handedly take care of the Nationals is actually a step in the right direction for the Marlins. Now they just gotta learn to beat "better" teams consistently. 

Plus there's been plenty of teams with excellent records who got there by padding up wins over the shitty teams, those wins still count.

Donnie Baseball looks absolutely racked. Someone take the bag from him before he goes home a with a soft 6.

And the Pirates.

Wait - shouldn't it be 36-50 since the Pirates have to also be adjusted to playing .500 against us like we do when we beat the Nats?

Nope.
