anybody have an opinion on jake arrieta throwing kingery and kapler under the bus in the media after a horrific stint in san fran?shut the f*ck up and pitch. granted you've been tremendous this year and the hitting hasn't been there and kapler (rookie manager) has made some mistakes. shut the f*ck up and pitch.
calling kingery to the table (rookie) in the media and then questioning their 'shifts' in the outfield. granted - it's been a concern and questioned since day 1. you signed a huge 3 year deal and the first year is front loaded with like $30 mil - shut the f*ck up and pitch.
no worse look to me than throwing your coworkers under the bus - it's June. You're still above .500. Shut the f*ck up and pitch. it screams Rat, Worm, Weasal, Rodent.............
my hope was he'd anchor this pitching staff and be a 'leader'.
a leader (I don't care what line of work you're in or what industry) - doesn't throw his teams/company under the bus.
you have a problem? you're the alpha? keep it behind closed doors and pull team members/management aside.
the question to me is has he had closed door meetings this early in the season - that he's pulled management aside - and maybe he's not happy with getting 'yanked' due to Kapler's stats and is unhappy due to the run support.
if that's the case - adios a$$hole. it's june. JUNE.
this team is on the upswing and you're supposed to be a 'leader' - guess what ACE - even if you're performing and the 'team' is failing you take responsibility - that's what a 'leader' is - and that's why you're getting ridiculous coin for a team that wasn't even supposed to contend this year.
whata d*ck. way to ruin my monday a$$hole.
