A huge What if... if the FO wouldn't have sided with the batting coach (Albert) and kept Schildt instead of canning him and hired an actual hitting coach that fit the team where would we be as a team the last two years?
honestly dont think things would have went much different. The problem IMO is not the manager. I would be glad to replace Oli, but the problem is in the FO.
I agree with you for the most part.. That's why they played their best baseball after Shildt started managing his way late in the year instead of being a puppet and is why he got canned.
