If you look in the comments to the tweet posted in the OP, Glenn Gilbeau disagrees. (Not saying I disagree - I've never person ally heard CLM throw a kid under the bus). Gilbeau specifically mentioned OBJ, JC Copeland, & Trey Quinn as players Miles had blamed.

I don't think anyone has asserted that Miles has never thrown a player under the bus. If there were a ratio of player blame : recognizing coaching mistakes, Miles would be skewed toward the right side and Mainieri to the left, I'd bet.

This is anecdotal but it just seems like more often than not we hear Miles say things like "We would have liked to thrown more" "That's the coach's mistake" "We need to coach it better", but you rarely hear Mainieri say stuff like "We shouldn't have hit and run there" "We shouldn't have left [pithcer] in as long". And I think most people would say I'm not the type to look for reasons to apologize for Miles.

That's garbage. But then again, we're talking about Guilbeau.

Miles always defends his players. Look at that time somebody called Russell Shepard a bust.

Guilbeau does this to get hits on his own story.
