The whining about Oli

Post by ClassicO »

He's signed through the 2028 season, with a club option for the 2029 season.

The constant complaining by some adds nothing. If Bloom thinks he screws up in the next 3-4 years, he's gone. And Bloom controls the roster.

A modern baseball manager may win or lose the team 3-4 games in any year. You'd think it was 15 games based on the incessant whining by some.
And BTW - those games won't move the needle for this team.

You know what does add value? Whining about the whiners! You've already made a difference.

It's interesting that the people who want to silence Oli's critics never bother to argue that he's a good manager. It's always "He's not as bad as people say!" and "He's Bloom's guy!"

And any criticism of Oli is now a pejorative -- whining. Criticism comes with the territory.
