Should the Arizona Diamondbacks bring back manager Torey Lovullo? Dan Bickley makes his case for Lovullo returning to the D-backs on the Bickley Blast.

@danbickley

@danbickley Not even his own words mf reading a prompt sent from the team😂

@danbickley This is a classic 98.7 “Let’s kiss the ring so the coach, manager, GM, etc. will keep doing their weekly interview with us” move. Never going to bite the hand that feeds them

@danbickley Here's a harsh reality for you Bicky, Torey Lovullo has been manager for a decade and earned a loosing record. Torey's also failed to lead us postseason three years in a row, two of them having us eliminated at the very last game. Good leaders keep their team in line and win.

@danbickley Fuck no

@danbickley We already know Bickley would go down on Torey but thanks for clarifying

@danbickley Why on earth would anybody fight for this guy? He was here like 87 years and did absolutely nothing. He has peaked. He can't make a lineup to save his damn life. The last two games were like a slap in the face to all of us.

@danbickley “A bet on continuity” is definitely true! Continuing in mediocrity would absolutely be the result

@danbickley Worst manager in baseball No player develops under him He’s lost ALL the veterans on this team and they’re sick of him No one wants him back but the propaganda media clowns who offer no reasons other than he’s been here a decade He a complete FRAUD who brings NOTHING

@danbickley Fire Dr. Jay Schwartz while you're at it too. #FireEveryone

@danbickley No we have been mediocre for 10 Years now. With a fluke WS run that ended in a loss.

@danbickley Absolutely not

@danbickley Fuck this moron

@danbickley I actually agree with Bick today. But Hazen has to go. Torey had to deal with a weak roster that Hazen did nothing to improve.

@danbickley He again Az sports media sucking

@danbickley Torey needs to leave because it's best for him. Find a team with owners who actually care about winning.

@danbickley Torey propaganda PSYOP from this station

@danbickley Year 3 of no playoffs. Something needs to change

@danbickley Who decides to put in Cabrera over Morillo? Who decides to put in Santana over Martinez? Who coddles Moreno? Who saves Ryne Nelson? All in a must win game? This kind of SHIT goes on each year. Costs us games. Enough!!! Promote Banister!!!

@danbickley If Bickley wants him then for sure he needs to go.

@danbickley #dbacks  need to fire Torrey Lovullo. You can make a lot of the same arguments I made for firing Hazen and apply them to Lovullo. Why can’t we develop homegrown pitching talent? Who is making managerial decisions? How many people are involved in making those decisions? Why…

@danbickley 3 years in a row the Dbacks best player has either asked for late SZN off days or gone AWOL. The team in those 3 years missed the playoffs by 0, 2 and 1 GM. Hazen and Torrey deserve their share of blame but there is not a team anywhere, serious about winning, where that flies.

@danbickley I understand looking at win totals but all the teams ahead of us had more wins this season and all teams deal with injuries. If Lovello coaches with urgency we make the playoffs by 10 games the last 3 seasons but he doesn't and that's probably not gonna change so why keep him?

@danbickley I think it's bad managing decisions in games we have to win should cost him his job

@danbickley Sure @danbickley act like this season was impressive “over 500” when in reality Torey managed a sub500 team against opponents not named Rockies or Giants But, Torey is an incredible motivator; god awful in game manager. I’m in on Lovullo contingent on those promises.

@danbickley No.

@danbickley FUCK NOO !!! DON'T BRING BACK TOREY

@danbickley I like Torey. My main 2 questions on him- who was responsible for the Marte debacle, and has his message run its course?

@danbickley Hmmmm

@danbickley I don’t think the team has performed poorly enough to shake up management. It’s frustrating as a fan and feels like purgatory, but that’s sports. This team has a young core. Maybe move Ketel and get a bat and prospects for him. Keep Hazen and Lovullo.

@danbickley I agree. Stick with Torey

@danbickley Is that haircut called the Skullet?

@danbickley Re-sign him so we can do it over again and again and again........... .

@danbickley

@danbickley No
