Well, i'm not sure I'd really consider Matt Williams right all the time after he nailed harper for not hustling while he was hurt

and then boom, he gets hurt a few days later hustling like crazy.

Harper needs to slow down; Matty needs to learn how to manage players better. Neither's a finished product.

I'll take the judgment of a guy who has been in MLB since the 80s over one who has been in the majors since 2012 any day of the week. - David Jul 1, 08:41 8
- I don't agree with Harper....but I also ain't going to say it's without merit. - Hunta Jul 1, 08:44 3
  - It is and I said as much when it happened. The other aspect is that Williams was brought in to be hard on Harper and teach him how to be great. - David Jul 1, 08:48 2
    - You can be tough on a player with freedom, but when you Kirk Gibson a guy who's hurt and actually taking it easy...that's just reinforcing that gulf. - Hunta Jul 1, 08:50 1
      - That IM is a huge problem although I suspect it's not true. -- nm - David Jul 1, 08:53
- while it is not ideal, he was asked his opinion, and he gave it. - groiny Jul 1, 08:42 3
  - His opinion should be, "I am just a player. Whatever my manager wants is what I will do." - David Jul 1, 08:44 2
    - if everyone answered that way, there would be no need for Sports reporting. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 1, 08:46 1
      - wouldn't that be something. -- nm - Reagen Jul 1, 08:51
