Minor league manager Joe Mikulik is at it again.

I ran across this article on Fox Sports:

Pretty sad that I have higher expectations of behavior from my three year old than owners do their managers.

Silly

While this is really quite absurd, it is also quite humorous - if I were a paying customer at the park it would be very entertaining which having been to several MLB parks recently, I cannot say about the quality of their entertainment especially between innings etc.,

As an umpire, that's a typical coach ...

Thanks
David

But instead of "putting on the foil", he's doing a Braden, albeit less artfully.

Plus, Braden left his skates on.

And was celebrating.

Is this guy an American citizen and a college graduate?

Wow. Talk about making a travesty of the game. Certainly makes me want to savor the skill and strategy of baseball. Not. I hope the owners are watching this guy. Wow.

For once I agree with the TV announcer...

Send him to bed without his supper. And no TV after school till November at least...

Joe Mikulik is a total A-hole and should be shut down once and for all.
