This is one way to devalue the impact of the Manager position. Btw, Craig chooses to cowardly cover the team & is never critical of anyone he has to face on a daily basis. Scared to lose his little postgame show which is the highlight of his career. Be better have some integrity
@marlins_slider@kevin_barral His name is McCullough and no. The true difference with any big league Manager is probably +-2 or so games and I don’t see anything different here. I see the negativity but laugh at the stupidity of it all. It is the lowest form of baseball intelligence bashing a MLB manager.
Could’ve kept building off playoff team with young core of controllable players. So sad. Even sadder that they traded away all of those guys & have no pos players to show for it. Criminal. Jazz/Arraez/Cabrera/Luzardo/Weathers. 3 years into new regime & season is over in May. OUCH
@RealEly Nerd Boy Bendix, the clown who decided to REBUILD A PLAYOFF TEAM. The 2023 Marlins made the playoffs with Skip Shumacher as manager. Then Bendix came along with manager Moron McCullough and it's been all downhill since then.
@MiamiMarlins_UK They think they’re so smart & forward thinking but they are so behind😂. Look at the Rays now - they could care less about bat speed. Winning the “bat speed” war for this extreme analytical FO is satisfying though regardless of the results that actually matter. Zero common sense
There’s a body of evidence now.
For me, the Kim Ng + Skip Schumaker partnership clears Peter Bendix + Clayton McCullough by some margin.
‘26 looks to be another clunker for the fish. When do the questions start to be asked?
@JoeFrisaro@Cangelosifan@AntonioArchil11 Would have been nice to have Weathers or Luzardo or Cabrera eh? Remember when the young Marlins cult media was raving about how serious this Org is about winning because they DFA’d Paddack and called up Mack? LOL. We miss your honest coverage Joe. Now it’s just paid propaganda..
@jeremytache@loanDepotpark “The atmosphere is a lot of fun” lol what a shill. It’s depressing in that stadium. I have never seen a worse atmosphere in any professional sporting event. Sell your soul kid..
@BenG726@LuadyCats@WillManso Seems like you have a very tough time coping with fans voicing displeasure here. How do you feel about how Bendix spent his 20M this offseason?
@WillManso@BenG726@LuadyCats They spent more than that this offseason. Total whiff. Just like all their signings. What a missed opportunity to have a true middle of the order anchor and a fan attraction. I was at a game the other day and it was depressing. Worse atmosphere than an FIU baseball game.
@WillManso@BenG726@LuadyCats Will he had 20M to allocate this offseason & lit it on fire. Didn’t even try for Murakami! He’d would have been the best thing going in the Org. The Morel/Fairbanks/Paddack signings were so bad. You can’t let the computer run the show for you. There are no baseball people there.
@BenG726@LuadyCats@WillManso “It’s not linear” is the classic excuse phrase when shit aint working out. Theres a blanket of regression that has casted over almost all position players. Zoom out. This rebuild is cooked. Trades have sucked. FA dollars have been burned. It’s why this FO is laughed at by peers..
@LuadyCats@WillManso Exactly. They took over a playoff team three years ago. Dumped a bunch of young controllable talent. The returns have been abysmal. Now sit in last place 3 years into rebuild while other rebuild teams in same timeline have kicked their ass & are way ahead of schedule (PIT/CHW)
@LuadyCats@BenG726@WillManso Nailed it. Great tweet. Sherman gave Bendix 20M to spend this offseason &Bendix gave him Fairbanks (10 ERA), Paddack (DFA) Morel (DFA). Brutal. Bunch of talent sent out with minimal to show for it. All prospects gone backwards. Cassie/Stowers/Agustin/Marsee/Caba/Deiveson/Serna..
Am I the only one who thinks we'll be talking about rece hinds in a couple years the same way we talk about lopez and hicks? I actually really like this move
