I know most tye Reds internet enclaves would disagree, but I think this has more to do with the perception of late career Marty than anything else. The moneyball era swept everyone up into a pretty dopey internet crusade, and Marty and many like him were on the wrong side of it. Marty’s had his moments over the years, but this idea of him ranting and grumbling all game long is so terribly exaggerated.
