Tim Bogar handles himself well under fire after the game. Now if he can do it better during the game, that will help. Good post game interview.

I don't give a damn if he takes responsibility

Its about learning from your mistakes and improving and he hasn’t learned a single thing from any of his numerous mistakes this year.

Its pathetic. Bring back Send ’em All Wendel Kim, over this loser.

Generally this stuff is way overstated...

but, man, Bogar has made 5 or 6 atrocious decisions – and its only June 3rd. Completely unacceptable.

dumb

Look, he’s dumb. He’s made bad decisions in the past and he’ll make bad decisions in the future. The judgment calls he’s blowing are not all that hard to make correctly. The fact that he’s been making them poorly has to be held against him.

This is not a task that requires a deep learning curve. Stop sending the catchers to be thrown out at home!

What he is saying is

“I take responsibility for them getting thrown out but I’m not gonna change.”

That is NOT taking responsibility, that is just saying you’re taking responsibility. If you’re admitting you’re going to keep making the same moronic unnecessarily risky moves, you need to not be in that position.

"Two decisions I made that didn't go our way, Obviously I should have learned from the first one."

Obviously you should have ….

That part made me laugh because that’s exactly the problem. I’d cut the guy a lot of slack if this was one mistake he made, everyone has one of those days.

However, this isn’t something new and he doesn’t seem to learn from his mistakes. If he isn’t learning, he isn’t improving and if he simply isn’t able to learn we can’t expect anything different from him and he should expect to be looking for a new job because he can’t do this one.

He shouldn't have needed to learn from the first one.

It was obvious VMart can’t run – his toe is all f***ed up. A ball was hit the gap earlier and he went only 1st to 2nd and was hobbling around all day. That’s just dumb.

He compounds it by seeing DMac get hurt diving back into 1B and then sends him to his death, too.

There was nothing to learn. Neither player should have been sent and Bogar needed to know that. The fact he doesnt mean’s he either has a philosophical difference with the team over the aggressiveness of our baserunning or that he’s incompetent. Either way he has to go.
