I know every fan thinks their 3rd base coach sucks but by god Tuefel was bad. Tried to compensate for a weak offense by sending runners at a ridiculously over-aggressive clip.

I had no complaints about Ron roenicke
woodhead1986
that might be the first time I’ve heard anybody not have many many issues with him lol Brewers fans would have a long list of complaints. Although to be fair, none of them had to do with him sending runners.

That’s actually comforting to hear. Ed Sedar of MIL drives me nuts sometimes sending runners carelessly and then also being too conservative at other times. Glad to know other teams’ fans experience similar frustrations occasionally.

As much as we love Tim, he legitimately lost games for the Mets last year.

I assume everyone who frequents this site has MLB Network because ESPN is the biggest disgrace in sports. Their MLB analysts are absolutely the worst and talk like the audience is a five year old. Alex Cora was a part of that, but I fully chalk that up to the network, hopefully. ESPN is such a joke and they should be held accountable for only covering big market teams. And this is nothing new, but there needs to be an equal distribution of coverage of teams. ESPN has devolved to NFL and some NBA, other than that they really don’t care and anyone who works there or is affiliated with such has no care for content. Luckily guys like Brian Kenny and Harold Reynolds abandoned that skatshow long ago. Just a shame the majority of people have to deal with ESPN as their source of sports. My hate for them runs very thick.

I’ve had some dental procedures that were more entertaining than listening to Harold Reynolds

It baffles me that Reynolds is still employed. He’s borderline incomprehensible, his attitude is pretty arrogant, and I find myself disagreeing with almost everything he says. He doesn’t appear to be interested in stats, especially newer ones, either.

Which is more lucrative for ESPN income wise? Sunday night baseball with Boston versus New York, or San Diego versus Cincinnati? It’s all about the advertising dollars
Michael Macaulay-Birks
But I definitely agree with you, the analysts suck

Way to improve is use the teams (in most cases by taking one from each team and pairing them together, or whichever team is at home and let them make the broadcast. ESPN and MLB just have and have had lousy teams it seems forever. Jim Kaat was a good MLB analyst, but it seems got a bit old and has ceased.. it happens. reynolds is as pathetic as Howard Cosell was and equally annoying. Joe Magrane on MLB, who seems to be their main color guy now is nearly as bad as is reynolds.
TBS and Carey the 3rd is nothing like his father and grandfather.. Ought to hang up his mic..
Allowing teams to use their own announcers, even the half dozen or so with serious homer announcers would be an improvement than the ones major networks are using.

I couldn’t agree more

Eh, both networks analysts can be pretty awful. Byrnes and DeRosa are either good or make me want to drive an ice pick through my temple. As for ESPN, you can’t have equal treatment for all teams if you can only dedicate a finite amount of time to the sport.
Also, Harold Reynolds got canned from ESPN for repeated sexual harassment claims.

Sad to see Sherlock go from the Dbacks to the Mets! That guy was a fantastic coach with us for a long time.

I’m intrigued by the Harold Reynolds comment. I believe Doug Glanville is the more fan-friendly version of HR. However, I can see where nerds like the Brian Kenny, HR, Plesac bunch. Smoltz is actually approaching that category, too. There should almost be a parallel “Sabermetric” channel that simulcasts each game.
rct
Harold Reynolds, a nerd? I must disagree.
hojostache
An old wooden post would be more fan-friendly than HR…because the post would know when to not talk. If the old wooden post did choose to talk, people would actually care about what it had to say.

I am I think the only baseball fan on Earth who likes Harold Reynolds. He entertains me, which is sort of the point.
cxcx
I like him.
Michael Macaulay-Birks
I like him too

Shame on all of you.

I think Eric Byrnes is David Lee Roth’s little nephew with a bad speed habit!
