Sox trying to fix Vargas
When you set the bar at 100 wins and miss with 85 - 90 that's a successful season. It's a losers mentality to say "we'll prob be able to win 60 games" and miss with 40. To that end, changing the culture certainly has not happened under Getz. He's failed in almost every way.

Stone not sure he will be back in 25, season "wearing on him"
I dislikes Beckham intensely at first. But he and Schriffen are both far better when working with each other.

Pedro Grifol, Charlie Montoyo, Eddie Rodriguez, & Mike Tosar Fired (Grady Sizemore interim manager)
I believe Skip wanted out after Ng left. I could be wrong though.

These games would be soooo much better if there was!

Gamethread: 8/5 - I Have A Bad Feeling About This One
I think they can get to 30. This is not a major league team.

Fire Pedro Grifol
Nope.............he's still not fired.

Biggest Single Season Turnarounds
I think having an actual closer improves this team by 20 games easy. These have not been hard problems they are just reluctant to address them out of stubbornness? Stupidity? Establish roles in a bullpen, get a couple of bats and a manager that's not brain dead. Will they do all this? Probably not. I expect them to spend millions on fringe major leaguers they inevitably trade for nothing. I think this team can easily improve next year. But I don't think the organization is competent enough to follow the right path.

8/4 - Streak Ends Now
They should fire him mid game

Fire Pedro Grifol
Fire them both. Bring in Kim Ng and Skip Schumacher.

I'd have to look on the website somewhere when I get a minute but yes I was aware of it as well.

To be honest this is usually where they're most competent. I've had some folks I've played with over the years work for them. Usually good Baseball people, good with kids.

Clinic No-Shows
Wow! We tried to get our kids into it but there were no slots left. And when you tried to use the website to get on a standby list it just froze so we gave up. Glad we did. My son loves this team regardless of their record if they did that to him there'd be hell to pay. I hope the families effected let them hear it.
- Pick the glorious day!

Fire Pedro Grifol
Well said. And I hope at some point that message gets to him.

Interim Manager
Raffle it off to a fan. And watch them do a better job.

Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
D - Only avoiding an F because he did make trades and didn't do nothing. The moves were mostly bad, save for getting rid of Eloy. And the only way out of this mess into any kind of relevance is going to be spending money on competent, major league ballplayers. Which they won't do, so I really see no hope.

Eloy Appreciation Post
I appreciate that he's gone.

Eloy to Orioles

"If this goes down as one of the worst seasons ever, it's on absolutely NO ONE but the players."
Riordan is as big a piece of s%*# as Grifol, so grain of salt here. But nobody should be surprised that Pedro would say something this ignorant and stupid. I will take the smallest amount of pleasure in the fact that in Baseball history, Pedro Grifol will go down as one of the worst managers of all time.

DeJong to KC for MiLBer Jarold Rosado
Hard to feel like it's anything else honestly.

Trade thoughts
Paul Dejong to the Royals.

Trade thoughts
If that's the case, with the Fedde trade this deadline will be almost as big a disaster as the historically bad season.

Trevor Rodgers to BAL
I wouldve taken Norby for Fedde straight up and been happy.

Latest as of early 7/30 GC likely to move, LR not
I've heard lazy and uninspired from a handful of Dodger fans.
