I still don't think it was just due to the bat flip. The series before that one Contreras was jawing and acting like a 7 year old. He was also probably one of the ones continually screaming like little league players from the dugout. It was obnoxious hearing it on TV, so I'm sure the Sox were sick of that shit too. The bat flip was just the straw that broke the camels back. It was probably more from what was said the series before and the Cubs bench acting like fucking children and they just had enough of it. I could be wrong, but a simple bat flip doesn't seem like the thing that Ricky would have someone plunked for, all things considered.

That was also at a time when most of the league was starting to juice. Also the league turned a blind eye to it because they needed the fans to come back to the game. I'm no fan of the steroid era, but it's hard to compare the two wrongs on equal footing. Not saying it was right, but there is a slight difference between what happened back then with a huge chunk of the league and one team cheating to win.

Here's the thing. I don't think him or Cora should be anywhere near a team next season. Their punishments were far too light. If they had more than a year off, I think myself and others would probably be more open to it. But given the fact they got a tiny slap on the wrist and then get to go right back at it the next year is a joke. Second chances are fine. But the timing needs to be right and I'm not sure how anyone other than an Astros or Red Sox fan can say the punishment they got was fitting. (and you know they would say it was too harsh, while the rest of the baseball world thinks it was a joke)

Given what went down, there is no way he was, or currently still is, in the top consideration of best manager in the league. He just isn't. You know that view of him was propped up due to what his team was doing, which was cheating. But fuck all, if it means winning a World Series, I mean, right? Do you view the pitchers on the staff and the hitters that were cheating the exact same way? We don't know what was said and done by those guys in the clubhouse. But Keuchel wasn't the fucking ring leader of the cheating. But hey, keep going. Calling a cheater, a cheater is vitriol? Ok man. Go ahead and reply again, get it out of your system, but I'll be done replying to you. So make sure you pull some good shit out. Add a bunch of *** when you spell things right too.

I wouldn't want him, because you know his numbers were propped up because of the cheating. I also think they Astros got off way to easy on the whole thing. Plus, the Sox need pitching more than anything.

Yep, gave me a good laugh, considering the context of the post. Haha.

Lol at saying someone isn't bright but then posts "your not bright". Ok man. Thanks for the good laugh. He's elite? How do you know that? Real easy to look good when your team is rolling because they were cheating. If he should get a second chance and wants to show how great of a manager he is, it should be on a team that isn't already at the doorstep. He can go manage the fucking Pirates. The 2020 Sox won games despite Ricky being at the helm. Of fucking course they will make Hinch look better than he is. Give me a fucking break. Top two or best my ass.

Ugh, fuck both these cheaters. It's a shame this wasn't a top down house cleaning. Hahn shouldn't have yet another opportunity to pick a manager. It's even worse if these are the clowns he wants to choose.

Wait, are you telling him no, to jerking off? That's just rude.

I read he was way faster than Madrigal earlier.

Well the situation found him three times and he came up empty each time.

Ok MVP. Third time is a charm.

Rally Engel with the donger.

And no where in that did I say this team was done for the season like you did. Later!

This game isn't over. You know the offense is going to score more runs. Maybe not the 20 that I joked they would need to win it, but they aren't done scoring yet.
