as an analyst, phillips is supposed to speculate. that’s all anybody who covers sports does, minus the handful of beat writers who simply report team news. and i don’t believe his speculation is contrary to the facts of the situation. while fukudome got plenty of at-bats, i seem to remember lou being fairly critical of him in the media during the last couple months of the season, even while continuing to play him. i think that’s what phillips’ “speculation” rested on. is it that unbelievable that pinella would walk up to fukudome’s locker, drop ass and yell “Little Boy!” at the top of his lungs, and run away?

I don’t see how Lou being impatient in the past gives Phillips a license for wild speculation. Especially when that speculation flies in the face of the facts of the situation.

so lou is the most patient guy around? and he doesn’t tend to verbalize his frustrations in an angry way?
