Let me see... I've taken a 41-121 team to 49-33 at the mid-way point, cut the admission price by almost $7.00, and improved fan interest from 37 to 51. For that, my attendance is up a whopping 3.1%.

Any ideas?

Brian,

I have reviewed the goals I have set out for you. My comments are below.

Team Record:
Seems like the team is well on its way to another playoff appearance. Once you're there, anything can happen.

Improve team stats:
While pleased that we've improved to 7th in On-Base PCT, I was hoping to end the season at least top-6. Do you think that's still possible?

Acquire a player:
I'm pleased with people who do what I ask of them. You brought in Brent Rooker, a Top Player, who should be a great addition.

Increase Attendance:
I'm not asking for sold out crowds every game, but we need to see more fans than we have been. I know we're up slightly from 2024, but we still have a way to go to reach the target I set for you.

Improve Team Chemistry:
The team chemistry is off the charts. Great work!

Improve your fan interest:
I think you'd better reconsider your approach to increasing fan interest. It's not working.


During our time working together, I have been very happy with your progress towards the goals I have set out for you. I feel similarly about your handling of the team's on-field and front office management.

The final evaluation towards these goals will come at the end of the season. Good luck in the second half!
