Sure there was. His “antics” costing Matt Williams his job is a complete joke. Harper’s “antics” have been speaking his mind and not being PC in interviews with the media.
Matt Williams lost his job because he was a terrible manager, lost a series he shouldn’t have lost in ‘14 and despite a historic season from Harper failed to make the playoffs with a roster that was loaded in ‘15.
I don’t hate Harper. Maybe I see that word in a different light than you do. I don’t wish him ill - he’s just not among my favorites. But being out here in CA, I’ll watch him more often online and become more familiar with him.
I agree. Matt’s managing of the 2014 series against the Giants was not well-executed at all. He did us a great favor in that way. I don’t think he’s cut out to be a manager - at least not now.
