May 3, 200323 yr they didnt give him big money because he never pitched a full season healthy... dont blame Torborg for Redman messing up while bunting....that is pathetic by Redman
May 3, 200323 yr who is blaming torborg? i am blaming his assistants for failure to teach to bunt properly.
May 3, 200323 yr i am sure they taught him all through ST and every day.... you can only teach the player, but you cant do it for them
May 3, 200323 yr bunting is not that difficult to do.... it should be a part of BP of some sort for pitchers every day.
May 3, 200323 yr you cannot stop working with pitchers on bunting once april begins. it needs to be a constant part of their routine. out of curiousity....how many of the marlins starters can put down a bunt when called upon that can be considered 'good'
May 3, 200323 yr Will Loria fire Samson? or is it Beinfest? I doubt he fires Samson...that's his son-in-law or cousin. Beinfest might get it, but more likely is Torborg and ESPECIALLY Arnsberg. Arnsberg should be looking for anew job already...I would if I was him. I'd even resign before they got the chance to fire me.
May 3, 200323 yr Don't know how much to say at this moment. But, it's possible that something big is going to happen...not sure THIS WHY THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE A.J. THE EXTRA MONEY AT THIS ARBITRATION!! THEY KNEW!! THEY KNEW MAN!! THEY KNEW ABOUT HIS ELBOW!!! This is major stuff!! Earlier today, at a Marlins location, that I won't mention at this time, they was a rumor told to someone over the phone, that there would be some "firings in the front office." Only heard the person who was receiving the info. You know play.. you could be writing for the Miami Herald.. right by Dan Le Batard... :mischief

May 3, 200323 yr Why would Torborg and Arny get the can? when its been reported that management is the ones being blame here.
May 3, 200323 yr This team spends too much time feeling sorry for itself. Loria needs to light a fire under them. I say can Torborg & Arnie - keep Ozzie, Robinson & Cox - bring in Bobby Valentine and his former pitching coach Charlie Hough. Bobby V. will have the Marlins playing hard. Bobby V. knows this team and the NL East. Make a move before it is too late!!! :angry

"light a match to something that's cold and it'll heat up in time".. or something like that.. don't remember...
May 3, 200323 yr Hmm...very interesting DT. Perhaps all the posturing on Baseball Tonight is part of a plan for Mr. Fake Nose & Glasses to get Torborg's job??????? :whistle
May 3, 200323 yr :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 :disguise2 for new manager
May 3, 200323 yr Lets play a new game... Instead of Pin The Tail On The Donkey.. How about Pin The Blame On The Jackass :jackass
May 6, 200323 yr Author A good manager should be aware that his player cannot bunt well and therefore not allow him!!! AGREE or DISAGREE?
May 8, 200323 yr Author Torberg is the one looking like an idiot! That's what coaches are for! To MANAGE the players! Is Penny next! Seems like Torby's just going right down the list! Redman is from American League and not a good bunter!!! :angry TORBY IS THE IDIOT, RAMP!! FOR ALLOWING HIM TO BUNT P-E-R-I-O-D sheeeeeeesh...!
May 8, 200323 yr im sorry but you are way off here.... Redman has been working since the day he got here learning how to bunt.... so he messed up on one bunt and he broke a finger THAT IS REDMAN'S FAULT... I hate Torborg but dont blame nonsense on him
May 8, 200323 yr things like that happn. its part of sports, li ke last year i hurt my ankle playing football and i was out for a month, it sucked, but its part of sports. you cant blame coaches for stuff like tht.
