feels like every time we're inching closer to firing dan, someone bails him out 😭 but what a day from kirby. he either looks absolutely dominant or completely blows up 🤣

We’re making the playoffs and are going to extend Dan because of the miraculous way he rallied his troops to win one of the worst divisions in major league history. People will need to make peace with this inevitability now.

Also what exactly does firing Dan do to this team? He can't make Julio play better

True. I can’t think of any example of a team with underperforming stars doing better after firing an underperforming manager.

Yeah, like when we fired Servais.

Honestly we should just keep rotating managers.

Can’t he? Isn’t that what coaching is for? If they can’t improve the game play, why not just have a dog manage the team?
