You fire him after a win? Talk about rubbing salt in the wound. The issues are not with the manager or anyone on the coaching staff. It’s with the owners who have not cared about baseball since they bought the team. Sell it now or you will continue to lose fans. What a disgrace.

Honestly no one could fix this team. This is an organizational issue, not a managerial issue.

Can we just sell the team? It’s obvious Monfort doesn’t care. This is all to make it seem like he cares. We aren’t buying it.

The greatest coaches in the history of the game wouldn't be able to do anything with a team owned by the Monforts. Happy for everyone that escapes this organisation. Congrats Bud 🎉
