Montoyo Fired

[L54]

[TwistedLogic]

Holy s*** they did it.

[tazsub3]

About bloody time.....

[Slade]

A lot of recent failure wasn't his fault but Bring on Schneider.

[Rafters]

Underachieving and not surprised.. wonder who the replacement will be

[JG34]

Someone play a bongo beat for him on his way out the door.

[L54]

Charlie seems like a good guy. He served his purpose and I’m not going to celebrate someone losing their job, but this is the right call. Something had to give and the Jays need someone else to lead this team.

[Ray]

How long until people are calling for Schneiders head when they realize that most of the in-game decision making is the result of collaboration from the front office, high performance department, and analytics team?

 

I give it about a couple weeks.

[Dagagad]

Managers are always the scapegoat for bad front office performance.

 

I don’t see how you fire the manager and not the pitching coach. That’s been the problem.

[RustyTrombone]

rejoice for our prayers have been answered

[RobinThicc]

Im actually surprised. Felt like more of this disappointing season has been on Atkins more than Montoyo.

[glory]

Oh my god, best news of the season.

[jaysguy44]

Weoooo, Shatkins next

[BlueJays]

Holy f***ing s***. Best news of the season!!!!!!

Any coach has an expiry date, so it is irrelevant how long before people are calling for his head, and more about what he wins until people start calling for his head.

As it is the fans, or the grim reaper that will scream off with their heads.......

He’s not going to fire himself.

[M.E.]

Wooooo f***ing Hooooooooooo

[Laika]

omfg it happened

 

we did it

[Brownie19]

Weoooo, Shatkins next

 

That would be a terrible decision - at least the Shapiro portion.

[BlueJaysFever]

Wow. I guess John Schneider will finish out the season?

[Krylian]

Yeeeeeesssssss!!!!!!!

[BTS]

That would be a terrible decision - at least the Shapiro portion.

 

Yup. I couldn’t care less about Atkins, but Shapiro is everything you want in a President

How do you assign blame for poor pitching? Is it the GM's fault for signing/trading/drafting s***** pitchers and not providing the necessary depth? Do you blame the players for poor performance that is below their projections and historic results? Do you blame the pitching coach for not - um...coaching good enough? I don't know how some of you assign blame onto one person so easily.

[Blazeit420]

Sweet.

 

Get rid of that damn jacket next.

[THANOS]

Yup. I couldn’t care less about Atkins, but Shapiro I’d everything you want in a President

 

Yep 100%.

 

It's fine if they get rid of Atkins because of the major league level decisions, but Shapiro has to stay.

[Horses Fart]

The vladdy incident last night was the final straw???

[Stangstag]

Holy s***, never expected this mid-season

I’m not saying it’s the pitching coaches problem. I’m saying pitching is the problem and the manager is way down the list of people who could be responsible for that.

[keggy]

Tapia for manager.

[Laika]

They probably made up their mind to do this a few days ago

 

you would think?

 

maybe
