Brad took a World Series contender and piloted them right straight to the cellar... I dont know what to make of it considering all the tough breaks he had, but still, he did have a decent team and didnt look all that great to me in the play calling. IF, he was a winner and guided the Tigers to the playoffs, I still have my doubts about him, but I really dont know of anyone who could be better. Seems like Managers are slim-pickins' these days.
right about now Id rather see Trammell get another shot, the team he had over a decade ago was also full of complete garbage thanks to Randy Smith pulling a Matt Millen. If giving a manager another chance because he had been dealt a bad hand says Avila and Illitch think this is DBrows fault.I wholeheartedly disagree. at this point Im startign to question the calls coming from the top. I also think thats the worst way to run an organization. this is a results first business, you here to make friends and give make excuses or to win?
