He may not lose his clubhouse but his players are playing him out of a job if they crash and burn this season. Criticizing/embarrassing his players in the media or clubhouse wouldn't change that. That might work for Drill Sergeants trying to motivate 18 year old recruits, but for a manager managing a MLB team, not so much. Yeah that didnt work for Billy Martin at all |

Not in the modern world of butt-hurt. Not in a world where the players are signed long term at crazy money and most managers live a tentative survival… |

It makes his big money mistakes worse. |

No but there should be To me it is the same as your boss calling you into his office to criticize your performance and inviting your co-workers in to listen. |

Maybe you need to wind your watch and or change your calendar because that was a different time/era. Martin embarrassing Jackson didn't work, nor did it work when Martin went off on Whitson.
