" But -- what I'm Randy -- the Washington Nationals have fired manager Manny acted the team has struggled both on and off the field has the worst record in baseball they All-Star break him. Couples break down what's going on our nation's capital we bring in our fox sports baseball analyst rob double who's also the -- television. Analyst and -- why why do you think it is really a big surprise that that they."

" Fired a match not only big prize I think it it's tough because many such a good person any good manager and I think. You know teams get you fired there lack of can play gets you fired but when you go into a season in a very tough. National League east with four rookie pitchers. People pin that was very inconsistent. And had to be almost totally revamped and turned over. Mike Rizzo is benefit -- fantastic job. Of making some very good trade but maybe too little too late to a maniac whose job in going into the second half they just one maybe. Change the attitudes changed the attitude and direction in the club Al. And go into the second half with a -- fresh perspective now for me you know I know the owners -- well bowlers who great job great stadium. You know first class all the way for the team. And basically the team get fired and so I guess they're lack of can isn't good play got a fire but obviously everybody knows there rebuilding mode right now. They've got the first trade still unsigned he'd draw hurt they've got a lot of great young talent. Major League Baseball when they own this franchise basically guided it. Traded a lot of guys I mean Cliff Lee. Grady Sizemore players like that could still be on the Washington franchise. But they no longer are so those are some of the things that they've had a -- They basically had no minor league system and then some of the guys that were brought in -- or Mike Rizzo. Under Jim Bolden in the last regime. Really had to be weeded out -- acted just didn't have time to maybe survive that the transition."

" Well as part of broadcast team you've been very critical of this team very outspoken. Do you think that the players -- basically under achieve it. I think -- players get fired."

" You know and I mean that the management the ownership many -- coaching staff I think we're doing an excellent job doing as much as they humanly possibly could. They just can't go out there and pitch and catch the ball and hit and run and field and run the bases and things like that that's simplistic. I did answer for this when you look at a team that that last in fielding last in pitching. It's hard to do anything -- its hard to manage that because a lot of times maniac was managing from five runs down four runs now you're always chasing. The lead and that's not easy to do and even when. They had a lot of leads the bullpen gave it up and you know I can't blame any act up or the pitching coach or even now he's the -- the new pitching coach. It's -- yeah -- call up the players. Because you have the police yourself can you imagine -- the Philadelphia Phillies. You know nobody wants to make an error on the filly nobody wants to kill a rally on the Phillies -- that same attitude. The national have to have an obviously you on the -- talent as the Philadelphia Phillies but you should have the same attitude. And I think that -- real -- I know what I know -- has brought him brought back is the bench coach can change within that clubhouse the guys in the clubhouse have to police themselves and that really had nothing to do management. And or maniac."

" Well you mentioned -- Goldman. He's been manageable forces just -- short term fix or will he stick around you know I like Jim I think Jim is an excellent guy I think that Jim has been there for the three month this year he's been the bench coach. I've been around of the entire season and you know he's got to come in there with a strong hand. And he's got to tell these guys listen this is not a country club. You're job is to win. Period and I've come from a championship organization I've been on a championship team I've been an All-Star so I know what it takes to be successful and a lot of these guys think. Oh I'm just happy to be in the big leagues or I'm getting it checked every two weeks that all of baseball about. You were there to win game period so -- league's ruling can stressed that. Get it across some of these guys in the guys ticketed crowd. They may not be there that long. -- thanks so much for -- was great to have you announced my pleasure if you're too tired operative foxsports.com. Is your source.
