Perry changed the plate approach of this team. He turned us from a free swinging group into the best on-base percentage team in the league. We've got a bunch of hot headed assfucks that try to hit home runs every bat, namely Theriot and Soriano. They're the problem. Everything is on the players. Disagree with personnel and managing decisions all you want, but the reason we're playing like a bunch of Sallys is because of our richass players not playing like they always have.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Is it not the responsibility of the coaching staff to keep those egos in check? If the players don't have enough respect for the coaches to take their advice, then perhaps a change is warranted. I'm not saying this is all on Perry, because obviously, Lou shares some of that responsibility, but I see this as Hendry sending a message to Lou to get his clubhouse in order. Lou's been way too passive this season.
