Eventually Carroll is going to get old enough he can't continue coaching. Until then he is going to win just enough to make it near .500.
BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT THIS TEAM IS BUILT & COACHED TO DO.
Today he ran into a coach that is near .500 but is actually a much better coach just not a great team.
Pete had no chance.
But until he retires, we are stuck with him. He's like those old 80s and 90s band that play the casinos now. Old, shadows of themselves, just playing out the old hits enough that people remember when they were good.
Could be worse. They could be the Mariners....
