LAA Fire Manager

[BobbyFK]

The Los Angeles Angels have fired manager Joe Maddon in the midst of a 12-game losing streak

Wow guess the game has passed him bye. I feel for Mike Trout just like Felix Hernandez never played a playoff game. They should trade him at the deadline if they still suck. Do him a favor and get some prospects. Did you know MLB doesn’t let teams trade draft picks.

We saw what happened with Phillies upon his firing!

Angels big bet tonight!

Maddon was just weird

His Cubs teams should have won 3 WS

They needed to move him

The Angels have puzzled me before & during the Maddon era. They have the greatest player of the era in Trout. The most dynamic star in Ohtani. Jared Walsh was an all star last year. They sign Noah Syndergaard and have a great young pitcher in Patrick Sandoval... yet, they still stink just like they always do.

The first game of the post Maddon era... of course it's a loss

Now Trout hurt

When it rains it pours.

A lot of ppl don't know this but when with the Tampa Bay Rays, Joe Maddon is the main culprit for starting what we now see today in managers pulling their starting pitchers after only a few innings even if they're dominating

It would infuriate the Tampa area you'd hear it nonstop on the local radio sports talk shows

This was before everyone else started doing it

A couple of broadcasters would always give him hell saying he needs to put away the commodore 64 & his pitch count stuff, and manage each game differently with human factor involved, not strictly statistics
