re: What does Jay Johnson bring to the table?

We gonna ignore the studs he brought in that carried us in Omaha?

Yes like Skenes, Cooper, Ack, White (who led the country in RBIs), I can keep going.

These are nothing but CPM dick riders or trolls that come up with these threads.

Look, do I think Johnson had coaching mistakes this year especially around pitching and fundamental hitting? Yep.
He stated before the season that we would see a different type of hitting club and that never happened. His team couldn’t bunt to save their collective lives. I believe that is directly on his lack of giving a shite about some of the fundamentals of baseball for his OPS analytics driven world. The issue is like MLB is learning, when you don’t have those contact hitters or guys that walk a lot or when you face good to great pitching, all your analytics fly out the window.
The golf quote fits “You drive for the show. You putt for the dough.”
I hate how fundamentally poor teams are these days.
