Going to go with a big fat D- We’ll see what happens at the end of the year. I could see him Getting to a D depending on what he gets for lizard and Scott. 

The only positives he’s added to the team have really only been Otto Lopez and one of those outcast rays bullpen arms. Although those pen moves negated by his pretty terrible bullpen decisions to start the year which cost the team a handful of games. 
 

whiffed on all the FA guys and converting Puk and sixto to SPs complete failures.

DFA Avisail is only reason I don’t give him a F 🤓

wife #4 really wasn't what we expected, was she?

Why not make this a poll so we can see the collective grades?

 

F is my vote.

 

You can't do absolutely nothing and hire 857 AGMs and then expect things to go well.  There was zero attempt at depth that we need every year, and, in fact, he traded away pieces after a playoff year and did nothing to replace them.  All signs are point to a full teardown/another rebuild, and frankly, if that happens, I'll have no problem shifting to bandwagon status.

 

For this year, Bruce doesn't even get a score, because F implies that you at least got points/credit for writing your name on the paper.....he's too cheap to even buy a pen to do that.

I just realized I ripped you off in the other thread unintentionally by using "big fat" for Bruce's rating. Great minds think alike.

What u vote 

What I want to know is who voted/gave a C grade without explanation?

 

Edited June 12, 20242 yr by rmc523

D-  barely.

In over his head when he got the job.

So many questionable decisions.

Plus coming off as "I am smarter than you"

Relying way too much on Rays castoffs.

Lucky to not have an F.

I gave him the D

I give him a grade of D instead of F simply because of our shit owner who is the ultimate problem here.

So what would he have to do to change to an F ?  Because I'm sure he'll find a way to do it.

Bahaha, is Bendix on this board giving himself an A?

 

And, to clarify - we joke, but I'm genuinely curious to know the person's reasoning behind a C rating.  So please post your thoughts, mystery member!  Believe it or not, we do actually welcome discussion and new members/voices (though not voices in the head, those are usually not good)!

 

Should be an F but giving him an F- for his punchable face

I really hate the way he answers questions. Like he knows better and we're all dumber for even wondering.

He does come off very schmarmy/Ivy League know it all which certainly doesn’t help 

I give him an A. He's done fantastic!
