He looked like Borat back then. He looks like Colonel Sanders now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't get why it is so unfathomable that such was the case, despite all the various media reports anyway. I mean - people are just overreacting like crazy. Lets take a second and here TLR speak and RH speak, etc. Lets see how this plays out. Again - It isn't the move I would have made, but I've said all along, I wouldn't have hired Hinch or Cora either - I don't want those guys. What they did is flat out different than the steroid era. I see a bunch of absurd hot takes in here and I think a lot of people are going to be wrong on this. If they are right - well than KW, RH, and JR didn't ask TLR the right questions to begin with as part of the interview process. I have to think these highly qualified people would have at least done that and I have to imagine KW / RH have their own direct views as well.

I wouldn't have an issue with him as our 5 either but that's why I specifically said 3. Like, we can cross Stroman off the list already so it's down to Bauer or ??????? Obviously we can trade for someone but we'll see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balta1701 2,343 Report post Posted just now 4 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: There are a lot of things to worry about, but my god the thought of La Russa getting say on personnel decisions is a fucking nightmare. Sorry to be cold, but Jerry Reinsdorf can’t die soon enough. Tony LaRussa is absolutely going to have the final say on personnel decisions. The former GM/now assistant GM opposed this move and it was driven by others - so if LaRussa and Assistant GM Hahn have a disagreement on a player's use or on an acquisition, it's already clear that the owner will come down on LaRussa's side.
