Manny Acta Firing

This is a B.S. move, this guy never had a Major League team to manage. This team plays hard for him everyday. They may not play good, but they play hard. So that shows me that he has not lost the team. Ownership has never given him the tools to work with! We waited 30 years for this crap!!!

Agreed, but with this kind of press it seems inevitable now...

Vivian Jaffe: "Have you ever transcended space and time?"
Albert Markovski: "Yes. No. Uh, time, not space... No, I don't know what you're talking about."

And I'm sure he'll be on the bench as Patterson gets the start.

And Bard’s arm and hockey goalie defence will be behind the plate. Kearns will still bat behind Dukes and Sunday will be like every other day…

Firing Manny wont make a difference.

The problem with this team is a lack of athleticism on the defensive side. A change of manager wont change that fact.

This team is starting to appear like the press and public make all their decisions for them. This team is ineptly lead. Rizzo may be above his talents as a GM.
