⚾️ The official I was wrong about Walt Weiss, so there's a greater than zero chance that I would let him spear me with his head...thread.⚾️

But seriously, for reals.

Whether it was my racism, bigotry, ignorance, and / or arrogance... I was wrong.

I also hear he's a black belt, in some form of Martial Arts. I just hope it's Krav because I feel like he would make Krav Maga great again. 🥹😭⚾️
 
I was actually okay with the Weiss hire. But I wasn't as down on Snit as most. Snit won a friggin world series for us. He had some ability as a manager. However, I do feel he faded in intensity at the end.

Weiss has brought the intensity back. He learned lessons in clubhouse leadership from Snit but has combined that with a hunger for wins and a willingness to use analytics that Snit didn't have.

Weiss has been strong. This team is absolutely rallying around him.
 
There are quite a few games this year, where in the past it would just feel like we're going through the motions. Would make a comeback if we created our own luck. But with Weiss making moves mid game and late innings, it makes it definitely feel different as if yes he is chasing wins.

Even the last few years with Snit, the games would go relatively the same.

1) Rely on starter to go min 5 innings.
2) Offense has to give us a lead before going to the bullpen.
3) If 1 and 2 aren't met, then it's a crapshoot.

Weiss using Suarez in high leverage earlier in the game in LA... and then like tonight he brought in the bench out to pinch hit and it paid off.

Snit never utilized the full roster like this before, and deployed his like Weiss has, except maybe in 2021 when everyone felt the front office was micromanaging him in the second half and playoffs.
