    To me firing him would be a silly PR move to try and convince fans the team is better than they are. We know that's crap. They are a 110 loss talent team. He ain't hurting anyone, they do that in their own. 

     

    Disagree. I gave him the benefit of the doubt last year for way too long. Grifol is a bad manager and will never be hired by another team ever. He’s gotta go. So does Montoyo.

    The way I understand it, he was already optioned during spring training, so the option was already used. He can come up and down all season and it still counts as one. Maybe it’s changed. Anyway, kind of a strange move after a day, but it’s the Sox. 

  3. It’s baseball. it shouldn’t be a given the Sox are going to lose any individual game unless a starting pitching matchup is lopsided. 

    If 3-4 teams lose well over 100 games, there’s something way worse going on in MLB than just the Sox offense being off to a slow start. But yeah, let’s expand to 32 teams.

    I'm afraid the 145 games he played last year is an outlier. Anyone who said they should have made him available last offseason is right.

    Agreed. In most cases, it’s not normal to assume a young position player is going to miss significant time year after year. Unfortunately, we have a few guys like that. Part of the equation of his trade value is health, and teams know that. When he gets healthy, and teams may be able to acquire a difference making CF for a postseason run, the Sox should listen. Probably not in July, but maybe December.
