So either one of them is lying, or they're both morons. In any case, i have zero confidence going forward with this clown show running this organization. Absolutely disgusted right now.
Atkins is lying through his teeth. Schneider basically said it was an organizational decision, since he cannot directly come out and say that Atkins and his Analytics Clowns had mapped the game out that way. What a disgrace for Atkins to throw his Manager under the bus, and then say Schneider will come back next year. After that disgusting news conference, I hope Ed Rogers does the right thing and fire Atkins. Promote James Click to run Baseball Operations. Have Shapiro strictly focus on the stadium renovations, or get rid of him too. This organization is a laughingstock with MLB writers all over North America, and MLB players looking at Ross Atkins and this organization as a joke right now.
If Schneider had a spine, he'd talk to the media after being thrown under the bus like that. But Atkins is hoping to avoid that by promising him job security. They're both clowns.
Schneider talk to the media and say what exactly? If he goes against the front office narrative in any way, he's never getting another managerial job in MLB for the rest of his career.
