I give him to the end of the month to turn it around.

Thoughts?
I picked Toronto to win the division and I'm convinced that I, like much of the media, jumped the gun on this team. It was a shiny new toy, a brand new "super team" but they just aren't playing up to their reputations, especially the pitchers now in the AL East. Can this all be attributed to Gibbons? Can team chemistry be expected to not develop over more than spring training and a month of baseball? Gibbons probably shouldn't be fired already and I have no idea who they would hire as a replacement since they hired Gibbons in the off-season because he seems a lower-tier manager anyway.
