well that’s extremely shitty, no way around it
Clownshow fucking organization
O/U 15.5 1995 giveaways next season?
I really hope this is disproven. Fucking shitty way to do in a guy like Servais that gave like a decade to your team and broke the playoff drought.
Fuck Dipoto.
That’s just kinda shitty. Media is going to do what they want (in that they’re always trying to be first for breaking news) but you’d think whoever their source was they’d at least ask them to be respectful of Scott until he was told in person.
Extremely jonboisian shit here
Futher evidence that more change is needed to salvage this shipwreck of an organization
You can’t convince me dipoto didn’t leak it to Rosenthal after yesterday’s private interview with him. He leaves a trail of bad relationships behind him. Can’t wait till he is gone this offseason.
Dear God how the hell do you let this leak before you even meet with the guy?!
That’s pretty soggy
Dipoto is a clown who doesnt do player relationships which in turn hurts our ability to sign guys. Ask Kyle Seager or Jarred Kelenic on how he does business. Players talk to each other r
You got servaisd
That’s what we in the industry call a big yikes
its bad enough this information got out, but “a couple of hours” is just pathetic.
I see why the Mariners haven’t been to the World Series.
You know, I had a feeling.
Mariners ownership will fight tooth and nail to block a team from possibly being in Portland because they know they would hemorrhage fans that are fed up with this organization.
Gotta stay off the internet if you don’t want spoilers
Who’s leaking the news to national reporters? Man, this is an ugly look.
That is fucking disgraceful. For a guy who has been in your organization for this long to find out he is getting fired like that is a real bad luck for the Mariners organization
Fuck the Mariners.
Breaking: Servais showed up to the stadium with a mohawk to inspire the players, but was quickly led into a meeting before greeting the team.
How does stuff like this happen? Ownership just calls a reporter to tell them? They have a rat in the front office who secretly leaked it? I’m trying to imagine how this is an honest mistake or miscommunication. Its just straight being terrible people either way
Jerry was banking on the 54% chance Scott wouldn’t find out before he spoke to him
Shades of the Braves with Fredi Gonzalez. IIRC he learned of his firing when he received an email from Delta confirming his return flight for later that night, while the team was still in the middle of their series in Philadelphia.
Wow, okay. The Bobby Wagner treatment. Wtf guys? Unacceptable.
Dipoto operating in full OOTP mode
Bad way of doing business.
Social media is great for information gathering/sharing, unless you’re in the business.
Social Media is cancer and no I don’t count Reddit cuz I am a huge fuckin hypocrite.
That’s not right man… even in this world of leaks and insiders etc, the first call you make should be to the person it affects. No exception.
Not cool. Feel bad for Servais.
What a horrible way to learn you’re fired. Of course, it’s the Mariners front office, so maybe not that surprising.
Isn’t this kinda more on the “source” that leaked the information to reporters? Having said that, I agree that this is a terrible situation
got fired on his day off
Fuck whoever in the front office is responsible for the leak. Regardless of how disappointing this year’s collapse has been Scott’s been with us for so long and helped make the 2021 and 2022 seasons magical for a fan base that had tasted basically zero success for two decades. He deserved so much better.
oof
I hate sports media
very professional
Just in case Seattle wanted to enjoy the seemingly quite realistic goal of playing their way back into the race..
… Oh and that probably includes operational leadership that enjoy having to schedule more folks in the ballpark .. and therefore the workers to handle the crowds…
Brutal
Did my boi dirty
i think fredi gonzales found out he was fired from the braves when he got an email confirmation for a flight since they were on a road trip and they were sending him home early
