Should have been fired in June or earlier. They won’t do it in season though. I fully expect him to be kicked upstairs in the offseason if this shitty season continues. Although just hire another yes man..

The whole front office starting the ownership needs to be gone. Stanton needs to sell because he’s a worthless owner, who is more concerned about fireworks bobbleheads and bark in the park nights, anything but his shitty baseball team on the field, which seems to be the last concern..

They are giving out baseball cards of a fucking raccoon for gawds sake.

This shit ownership group is more concerned about the fan experience than winning,
Thank gawd for the team next door who takes winning seriously.

I never understand the phrase Stanton NEEDS to sell. He doesn't NEED to do shit. You can say I WANT Stanton to Sell but everyone always says Stanton NEEDS to sell. Why is that?

As long as Dipoto is GM, it doesnt matter who the manager is. He's been almost exactly like Servais and there's a reason.

If Dan gets fired they'll bring in another puppet. Probably Dave Valle or Willie Bloomquist.

I'd hate for Dan to be another scapegoat for Dipoto and Hollander.

He's a thousand percent yes man, so that's a problem. I think he was willing to do whatever it took to become manager. Even if it meant managing the team like a tardburger amd doing exactly what Dipoto wants.

I totally understand the idea of swapping your platoon players in the sixth inning, otherwise any swaps pretty much happen against the closer.

Ok, fine reasoning.

The prooooobbblllleeeemmm is they shouldn't be acting like two halves of a platoon are ever going to fit together. Especially when you only have two spots available on the roster and need to add impact.

Should he get fired.
No, He needs a lateral move....player development, minor league development.International franchise development... I don't know...he's a loyal and trustworthy alumni with lot's of experience and value. Just get him out of the dugout, the man is a good man, but he's a 4.o out of 10 as a game manager and he's a minus 2 on a scale of 1-10 in post game communication with fans and the press corps.

At this point, the offense seems to spiraling downward. Is this the managers fault? Are the hitters pressing because of Dan Wilson? Would replacing Wilson light a fire and lead to better results? If the answer to any of these is yes, I'd say let's replace him -- with someone in an interim capacity -- right now. Then do a real search for a permanent guy this winter.
