As ever, a great read, and a very measured reaction to the hole that the Cards have dug themselves into. I guess I'm on the side of "keep on keeping on" and thus take the view that this is actually a winning team which is playing badly. Besides anything else, it's a bit late this year for the major reconstructive surgery required if this really is a 60 win team.
Today may have hit it. Maybe last night was the back breaker to the season. I don't know either, Daniel. Your suggestion is as good as anyone else can come up with. Bernie recently wrote about the '72 team falling apart early, and it wasn't a bad roster either. They never made up the ground. I wonder it Red had a meeting like you suggest Oli might do.
Some good thoughts to be sure. But a lot of Marmol's frustrations are of his own making. his constantly shifting line up and batting order. throwing players under the bus I will be surprised if he is still the manager at the end of the year.

I first read that as “the second act of Salò”, a different image of the early season to be sure 😆
And yes, I’m blaming Marmol for poisoning the clubhouse. There’s plenty to go around, but he actually feels like a villain.
