Agreed. Benching for the opening series, or even an entire game, is the traditional method for sending a strong message.The LOB team held each other accountable. ADB, ET, Kam, Red Bryant, etc.
This new team lacks those types of players. Bobby is a lead by example type. Diggs is a lead by horrible example type.
If players are not buying in, the message Pete needs to send is that jobs are on the line. He has not been effective in making this clear.
PC hasn't done it. It should have been done 10+ games ago. A mid-season cut is the next step, and that sends F7CKING MESSAGE!!!
He only started talking tough when he started getting some very kindly delivered but probing questions.
Softballs pissed him off. Will he actually do anything productive? Or just be pissed off that the media guys who have been stroking his ego for years are now hinting that hardballs may be soon to follow?
