February 17, 20224 yr I'm glad to hear this. I also am not surprised Tommy doesn't want to do the full schedule, but it'll be great to hear him calling at least a chunk of the games. I still wish they'd bring Rich back too, but they seem to like Paul.
February 17, 20224 yr I kinda like the idea of an analyst rotation, especially since it was the only way we'd get Tommy back. He no longer wants to do a full season he said.

He no longer wants to do a full season he said. If I have to guess, Tommy will probably end up doing half (or a good chunk) of the home games so he doesn't have to go through traveling, with the rotating in house people filling in on the road and the rest of the time. I actually thought Arencebia did a decent job when I heard him on the radio - better than Gaby Sanchez, anyway......we know they're not going to pay a "good" guy if they're already slotting Tommy in for a chunk of games - a "good" one would likely want the full season and/or too much for a partial season. Severino has gotten better than he was initially, but he still feels too "national broadcast" for me - Rich (and Tommy) had that hometown announcer feeling - granted they did it for so long, I'm sure it took a bit to warm up to them initially too, but still, when nobody wanted Rich gone, it's annoying that they let him go. We can hope, but don't see Paul changing for now. I also wonder what caused them to move on from Hollandsworth? Was it some internal metric they didn't like? Did they just get a lot of complaint emails? Can we send a lot of messages to them to get Rich back? Edited February 17, 20224 yr by rmc523
