pettie4sox Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) Do you think a good manager loses games that are blowouts that late in the game? Seriously someone answer me this f***ing question? You absolutely have to fire Robin, you can't let that level of incompetence stand. Edited May 28, 2016 by pettie4sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 JR couldnt fire Gar Foreman. There's someone who deserved to be fired. He's not going to let anyone be gone for this. They'll probably get extensions after this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could you lose a 6-run lead at the bottom of the 9th inning? WHY THE HELL AM I A WHITE SOX FAN? SUCH A STUPID MANAGER THAT GOT KEPT ON PUSHING DOWN OUR THROATS EVERY SINGLE DAMN GAME!

Green Line Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I just cant f***ing believe that one effing Rangers game has done this to us. How mentally weak can a team be to let one blown loss destroy an entire season? I laughed at the people who were freaking out after the Texas game and told them to screw off.

Jake Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 If you're focused on Robin, you're focusing too hard. Pulling Robo and then putting in Kahnle was *very* questionable, but when you're in the position to make those decisions you're beyond the point where managing is your main problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin is a f***ing idiot! The manager's job is to put players in position where they can succeed, Robin failed at his main job today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillian Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) All of that nonsense about the closer not being able to pitch with a big lead, because of the absence of adrenaline. Hey, I think he put himself in a big enough jam to muster up some adrenaline. Maybe it was more than adrenaline, that was missing.

fathom Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Why was he allowed to pitch to Hosmer? It was obvious his fastball sucked today. Perfect chance to try Purke, and if that went bad, Jones should have been ready. Cooper's pitch calling is comically bad of late. Just so freaking stubborn.

Probably not the best idea to put Robinson in there, but WTF how can your CLOSER not hold a 6 run lead in 1 inning of work? The bullpen is just horrible right now.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Love this forum but I can't take this team anymore. No accountability. It all starts with JR. f*** him. I'm done until Robin is fired.

Lip Man 1 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 The season was defined by the Texas Two-Step game. This is just adding insult to injury. If Ventura isn't fired immediately tonight he's not going to be until the end of the year (maybe...) Three more two out RBI's. In a sick way I actually think its kind of funny. Maybe this is what it will take to get JR off his rear end. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they were right! 30 years of White Sox baseball taught me that something as seemingly small as that single bottom of the 8th was enough to completely turn the tide. It's all the more fitting, in some ways, that the end of first place came against a nearly crippled team playing without 3 of their top 5-6 hitters last year in Morales, Gordon and Moustakas. That means Greg's bet against Golden State has to be right, lol. We're technically in 3rd place already and a Tigers' win (losing 3-1 in OAK) would put them only 1 1/2 games back, incredibly.
