CY wouldn't get onto specifics about what he said to the team.

 

[saddles]

Their flagship station cut away before the press conference was over. Ugghh!!

Create an environment where everyone brings out the best in each other.

we should do that here too

I didn’t change my Avatar to Michael Young a couple weeks ago for no reason

Lol Some of us have further to go than others.

I'm glad to see Beasley get a shot.

Me too. Never read anything that doesn't make me believe he already has the room.

Also from Press Conference:

Objective for remainder of season is to create a competitive energetic team with an improvement in fundamentals. Create an environment where everyone brings out the best in each other.

Easier said than done. Who is going to do that? It is still the same coaching staff. Some more corporate speak. They most likely will have to wait until they have a new manager in place next season.

Someone mentioned that as it pertained to preparation, and they pretty much said that they trusted Beasley to do a better job at that for the rest of the year.

players are the blame for sloppy play. Managers can't hold their hands to ensure they play right

Listen, I like Beasley a lot. But if they start winning it won't be because of preparation. The season is so far along and there is not much time for it in between games. Sometimes just having a different voice changes the culture for a short time so that could happen. But I think what they are wanting to happen will be more what they do to prepare for a new season.

very much a "the Rangers play in a hitters park!" situation.

I am hoping we get a manager who makes better decisions. I certainly do not want one with a history of not replacing a poor defender like Cruz with someone like Endy Chavez late in the most important game ever. Nor do I want someone who would choose Harrison over Holland to pitch in the next most important game.

Not to mention some major personal problems.

 

[Kelleyman]

Him and TR are cronies that are sour on the decision

You have to read between the lines with some of this

Don't think you have to worry about that any more.

I got to listen to both conferences in entirety on the MLB app
