That isn't in dispute^^^. The charge is that he allowed his faith to influence his roster decisions. And it's bullshit until someone shows proof.

You know why... he wrecked that clubhouse. You keep asking for proof. The proof is that one of the most image conscious organizations in the league chucked the guy because he lost the clubhouse. |

This is a bad argument. Managers get fired and come back better managers. They learn from there experiences. See Milwaukee Brewers, Ned Yost, 2008 with two weeks left in the season. I believe the Brewers were 83 - 67 at the time of Ned's firing.

So even though if a player that was confirmed in the study group was less productive than the guy on the bench that wouldn't be good enough for you? You need someone to link video of Matheny saying that he directly started a player because he prayed with him that day?

I'm fairly confident Kolten Wong was in that group and was often in the starting lineup when he was just straight garbage. Specifically in 2016 when he had an OPS+ of 84 and Greg Garcia is sitting on the bench with a 108.
But you'd have to ask a Cardinals fan that's read the book. However, thats not good enough for you so w/e. |

Jon Jay, Randy Choate, Pete Kozma come to mind. Also, Descalso and Mark Ellis, who was arguably the worst 2B in team history but kept getting trotted out there for months.
