Good thing we already made it past the plantation analogy somehow... But definitely beating up Lucas, Abreu and the bullpen. Granted, not many decent options remaining. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's been resting players to the point of infuriating fans. I'm not certain I can pin much of this on Tony but I'm willing to learn. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pcq 1,150 Posted June 23 This team is a hilarious tribute to failure and missteps. This was a rebuild committed to failure as a tax write-off as in The Producers. Only Tony could unravel everything in such magnificent fashion. Time to bring in The Pillow Guy for GM. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That wasn't so abundantly clear at the beginning of the season. The Top Ten players on each team at max potential are more than comparable. It's the other 15 that are the problem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is the whole point why has Toronto got a better line up and deeper talent when the Sox are supposedly in their 'window' following a rebuild? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s trying to say it’s Hahn’s fault and not TLR. 50% accurate. Both are equally culpable. Or you can split it 33.33% with strength & conditioning/training staff if you prefer.

And since strength and conditioning staff pop up out of the ground once a ballpark is constructed, no one can possibly be blamed for hiring them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
