  1. Damn right he should hit on 3-0. If the opposing team chose to use a position player to save their bullpen, then all rules are out the door. What if Yermin took the pitch and it was a strike? Now it's 3-1 and what if he takes it again and it's a strike...now 3-2. Oh, so now with a 3-2 count, is it ok for Yermin to swing and then hit the home run? Is the senile TLR still going tell us that Yermin did the wrong thing by hitting HR on 3-2 and Yermin is clueless? Wait, maybe TLR expected Yermin to not swing at all and take a possible 3 strikes and lower his BA.
  2. Of course Steve Stone is totally right here. The White Sox Marketing Dept. created their slogan: CHANGE THE GAME! Unfortunately for the Sox players and fans, the senile TLR has lost his cognitive skills to actually understand what that meant.
  3. Of course it is, but I'm glad. A Rod is horrible announcing games. I love hearing Steve Stone.
  4. All great points and don't forget the 5-4 loss to the Twins when he should have used Kopech for at least another inning or two and left Bummer in too long.
  5. That was awhile back. I sure don't see Abreu coming out right now and supporting LaRussa!
  6. Just because TLR isn't going anywhere because we have an clueless, senile and pompous owner...doesn't mean we have to deal with it. It's wrong TLR is the manage and many of us are going to continue to voice our opinions. Deal with it!
  7. If its such a established sportsmanship principle, why is the entire team supporting Yermin and not LaRussa? If the Twins Mgr decides he doesn't want to tax his bullpen and use position players to pitch, then that's fine and his dumb decision. However you cant also expect the opponents to lay off and just take pitches. Yeah we suck as a team and we need to rest our bullpen, so can you please take it easy on us. Total BS as CC Sabathia pointed out.
  8. He might not be going anywhere thanks to our great owner, but he is not doing a great job. Only Cub trolls or contrarians would even say he is doing a great job.
  9. Thank god CC Sabathia defended Yermin and went off on his tirade rant on TLR. More ex players with need to do the same.
  10. Rightfully so, when you are the most clueless and dumbest manager in baseball.
  11. Good I hope more come out and stand up for Yermin. It's sickening that TLR did not stand up for Yermin. Steve Stone pretty much said the same thing last night.
  12. Your sarcasm would be funny if you would be consistent and call out every other post here with grammar and spelling mistakes, which is many. I personally don't give a crap when someone makes a mistake in choice of words. I stick to the content for my replies and you should too.
  13. That's fine, just make sure he does it for every single post here going forward.
  14. My bad, I should have checked my words better before sending, which I normally do. Thanks for being the designated English teacher here on the forum. We greatly appreciate your support to the community. I sure hope you never post something where you make an accidental grammar or spelling mistake. I'm sure that has never happened to you! I'm curious though, do you reply to all the posts here with grammar and spelling mistakes? I have seen a ton of them on here and not sure if you replied to every single one of them. LOL. Like most here, I thought we were to reply to the content of the post.🙄
  15. It's a mute point so let's move on. It is what it is with Jerry. He has always been an pompous and buffoon owner for both his clubs. TLR is here and that isn't changing....unless he gets another DUI! lol The good news is, we can win the World Series this year whether his lame ass manages this team or not...the team is that great.
  16. I'm not being picky. Owners don't override GM's Name me the owners in MLB right now who went over their GM and chose their current manager besides Jerry.
  17. The Glazer brothers are not worse than Reinsdorf. Tampa just won their 2nd Super Bowl and all 22 starters coming back. Plus they were smart enough to buy Manchester United which is worth a lot more money than the Bulls or Sox. Btw, those were all football owners. Also, not sure why the McCaskey's were not on that list.
  18. First, In my comment I had the word usually before never. Of course there are always stupid owners who can make stupid decisions. Secondly, as far as Hahn being fired. Of course Jerry could fire Hahn. However as senile and clueless as Reinsdorf is, I don't think he would dare fire Hahn. The bigger worry is will some other sharp owner make an offer to steal Hahn away. Ricketts did it with Theo and the Dodgers owners (Guggenheim Management group) did it with Andrew Friedman from Tampa. Owners can do what they want. It doesn't mean they don't follow normal best practices of running an organization.
  19. Terrible and ignorant analogies. Al Davis and Jerry Jones never had a GM under them. Jerry still doesn't. Once George Steinbrenner hired Brian Cashman in 1998, he and his sons now, have never stepped in to tell Cashman who to hire as manager.
  20. Since when can't a fan be ecstatic with this White Sox amazing run and success, as well as be unhappy because of the manager. I am not nitpicking and I don't think as you claim....I know the Sox are winning in spite of TLR. My harsh feelings for TLR are not prejudicial. My criticism for TLR as a "hater" is based on the fact he was forced onto the team by the pompous owner, which is usually never done in any of the four sports. Owners own and collect the money and GM's//VP's make executive decisions who should manage the club and who should be on the field. This team is winning not because of TLR, but because of the awesome rebuild Rick Hahn has done putting this team together. It's because the players he brought here are jelling together, having fun and establishing a championship winning culture. I understand we're suck with TLR and that won't change sadly. That doesn't mean we cant be a critic of him and still love our Sox players and success!
  21. Lynn before the game 🙄😱😞😩 Thanks Tony, you gave the past four starters 9, 9, 9, 13 runs! Thank you Tony, may I have another!!
