So dehart has been here for years. Our offense has been so bad for years. Think we fired the wrong guy. I would be shocked if this offense got going!

Now hold players accountable. Bench and cut people. Shake up the lineup. The status quo isn’t gonna work either.

Thank God... whenever someone is put in charge and uses phrases or words like "diversity" or "diversify" while including other pointless drivel like "I hope to let them feel more human!" just when asked "What your job/position is and what you can do to help the offense?" then your offense is f*cked. Good riddance. The fans and crowd can be diversified and help make the players feel human. A hitting coach, bench coach, and 'offensive coordinator' should I dunno... maybe help them do their job and hit? Wouldn't that be the only task on the job?

I'd throw a complete game no hitter underhanded, with 9 perfect innings against a Brown ran offense, because I'd just smudge some eye black on every ball, and just like the cops, the hitters would be too afraid to hit the ball for diversity's sake. ez win.

I actually love it. Usually they just slow play everything to not appear desperate. I applaud the move. Good job Jerry!!!
I like the move. It sounds like: (correct me if I am wrong) that the players didn't like what they were hearing from him? And then he was let go as of May 31 before the night game where France's bomb capped off a 5-run game the day before they light up LAA for 9 hits, 7 walks 1HBP 2 SB 9 runs good for a= .281/.425/.531 @ T-Mobile. I don't want to make too much out of it but without BB = 7 runs a game with him 3.64 runs a game. Mind you, Seattle usually has a slow start with the offense before improving with the warm weather and cycle out of non performers.

I think in some ways players can prepare too much.

All these conversations and pinpointing flaws in swings, blah, blah, blah... what about an athlete's natural ability to perform?

I bet the players feel a bit more freed up to just get out there and hit.

They should have fired Servais too
We can't do that, the M's would have to pay him the cash for his contract, for doing nothing!!!!!

Exactly I can feel the players eye rolls from here listening to that joker talk.
