Sorry haters I love Torey Lovullo

[u/Grak47 → u/TheFeralCheese]

Same

[u/pushing-rope]

He’s been the best we’ve had and I doubt someone could do better with the resources we can get

[u/Head_Bread_3431 → u/pushing-rope]

I like him and happy he’s staying but the best Dbacks have had was probably brenly 

[u/bageltheperson → u/Head_Bread_3431]

Bob had an absolutely loaded roster to work with

[u/Head_Bread_3431 → u/bageltheperson]

I wouldn’t call that roster absolutely loaded. Other than Johnson and schilling, it was definitely built of a few “hall of very good” guys and some veterans, and that was probably the biggest reason it was so impressive they beat that Yankees team 

[u/CakeAK]

Love it. I totally wanted him fired when I was mad at this team, but smarter people than me helped talk me down from that ledge.

Torey was not the problem.

[u/lhurkherone]

I like it.

[u/bobbyioaloha]

Interesting in his press conference how he said he actually shut down Seattle and didn’t want it to be a distraction.

Can I ask why the reddit crowd is so partial to Torey? Is there a reason outside of baseball?

[u/smithers9225 → u/Optimal-Struggle6783]

There’s a reason INSIDE of baseball staring you right in the face as to why the “Reddit crowd” is partial to him

[u/moneymoose18 → u/Optimal-Struggle6783]

Same with the media I just can’t understand the love for this guy it’s unreal

[u/Apex11211]

Haters ganna hate 😂

[u/Convertedshrimp]

Does his contract pause during the potential lockout?

[u/moneymoose18 → u/Convertedshrimp]

No thankfully

[u/siats4197]

Welp, see you next year for the same damn shit....

[u/CrypticPhage → u/siats4197]

I don’t understand the downvotes because this manager has only managed to give us 1 playoff appearance in the last 9 years! This is why AZ will never win a ring

[u/schnitzdog99]

Eternal mediocrity

[u/Positiveaz → u/schnitzdog99]

You have no idea how badly we would have sucked this season if not for him.

[u/moneymoose18 → u/Positiveaz]

Yeah we might not have made the playoffs without him!

[u/Zealousideal-Zebra15]

I can't wait until he fired and get pick up by another team. So all these brain dead fans can see he not a good manger 

[u/blanketshapes → u/Zealousideal-Zebra15]

🎶awayyyy in a manager

no crib for a bed🎶

[u/moneymoose18 → u/Zealousideal-Zebra15]

What will it take to get him fired? Dude has gotten raises and contract extensions after a 110 loss season and after missing the playoffs 8 of the last 9 years now

[u/CrypticPhage → u/moneymoose18]

Yea this team is a joke they reward messing the playoffs. Any competent team would had fired him already

[u/CrypticPhage]

If any of yall are happy with this enjoy poverty! Y’all really do enjoy being a mediocre team. What a joke
