I watched the interview on yahoo. I feel sorry for Pedro now. I'm sure the guy is trying. It's just a mess from top to bottom starting with Jerry and then Getz. Pedro is third on the blame list. I know he makes top dollar but I still feel a bit sorry for him. He's trying to win MLB games with a MILB team. I mean MLB teams just don't lose 4 game series and play as badly in all phases in the game as the Sox. Poor Pedro. Maybe that should be a new T shirt design. Reads Poor Pedro on the front and his picture. On the back names of all the players and the text "Historically bad season."

I've heard Pedro was not considered managerial timber by the KCR's. Look they had a chance to hire him, a young loyal soldier, and didn't. Why didn't the Sox see that as a red flag? Ozzie watch. Why not? This team is a walking cache of mummies. Even those who can't forgive Ozzie for quitting should admit it'd be fun to see him kick some bleep while being entertaining after loss after loss. When I see Ozzie speak I am entertained and happy. Sports should make u happy and entertained. Hire him for four months baby.

That's cause all areas of the team are substandard so at least one gets u every night. Tonight it's hitting. On nights we score five or more it'll either be bullpen or starting pitching. Getz built a team substandard in all areas except 'maybe' defense. Defense allegedly is OK.

By the way Schiff should be embarrassed by his home run call on Mendick blast. He was all hyped and excited. I think he did the 'stand up' b.s. Look our fans are not dumb. Schiff just calm down when we're down 4-0 in the 8th and getting no hit. Manufactured enthusiasm, bah. Harry Caray and Piersall would be so hard on this team.

You know, it is embarrassing to lose 4 games in a row at home especially. Amazing how nobody in the Sox organization cares. This is almost highway robbery, taking money from fans for this crap. Almost got no hit. Geez. I wish somebody would say how embarrassed they are. Even the Pham addition has now worn off.

Who was Kessinger's primary pitching coach to run the staff. Certainly Don was too busy hitting .230 and playing defense to be concentrating on managing a pitching staff during the game.

Ozzie would have had a zillion funny sound bites compared to none from Pedro. Who am I kidding though. With a team this bad he'd probably say something outrageous that doesn't fly in 2024. That wouldn't be so good.

I'm just like you Mite. I never was fair weather either until they insulted me with this roster So they finally got me to give up. Consider doing what I do. Just catch the score off this site or MLB and watch the highlights on mlb.com for free under game story after the game. Check the box score after the game and u can keep up on how the guys are hitting/pitching. You really won't miss watching the live action. I don't. It really is a waste of precious time to watch these guys play baseball live.

I watch highlights but haven't watched a live second either. There have to be tons of former Sox fanatics like me who do this. Sox popularity in Chicago must be very very low.

I didn't realize we were counting Robert in the Eloy "always hurt" category. I thought he had a little better chance of staying healthy. Maybe my bad. ... Still you can't tell me the Sox will EVER "speed up that process." Not as long as they have this stupid new philosophy of tank jobs even though the draft order process has changed.

27-25 record and 3.5 out of first. It just shows you (tank lovers) that it doesn't take much to be a contender for playoffs. All the Sox have to do is flirt with .500 and get hot one month. But instead they mess around with this tanking crap for 10 years and are the dregs of the entire league. I wish the Sox would get some common sense. We need a do-over starting with the Sale trade year. Sox have the worst team in baseball by far and no plan. Nice.

Geez. I'm still waiting for somebody on the board to instruct greg on the Sox plan with all this?? You do realize the team will have an even worse record next year after the complete destruction of the roster right?

True, why do people stick by Kopech? He is terrible. By the end of the season we may only have 1-2 players on any other team's radar. I still think Pham could help a team that needs an outfielder with a decent bat like the Royals. Why would anybody want Crochet if he has some pitching inning limit?

20 out with no plan. Sox are probably going to do what everybody suggests on here: get rid of all players not named Robert. That will require management to acquire a new collection of stiffs to start the 2015 season. Any pitcher worth a flip will be traded meaning we'll need a whole new set of starters and relievers. The bullpen will be even worse next year. The hitting will be the same. Sox will win about 40 to 50 games again and we'll all be happy cause we're tanking/rebuilding baby. Orioles deserve credit for dusting off the White Sox three days in a row. No excuses for them to not sweep.

If we lose all four games of a four-game series again, somebody should be fired. Oops, my bad. Jerry will probably take it out on an usher or somebody. Don't mean for them to get fired. I'd start with Pedro on Sunday and let Oz or Tony take over for a month or two.

As greg said earlier in predicting 40ish wins there's always some part of our team that will implode on a given day. Today it's relief pitching and hitting. The starting pitching was good. Five hits offensively won't cut it. So yes we lose 7 or 8 out of every 10. Man Kopech should change the picture on his drivers license to a meatball. Dig in when you face Kopech. Boom. Home run. Nice meatball by Leisure too. Leisure makes me wish I had to work today.

It's not his fault true. He can get over any criticism by counting all the money he's making for basically contributing nothing. They should at least start training him to be a scout or something. Put him to work as he's never gonna contribute on the field more than 10 games at a time then eight weeks off, then 10 days at a time then 12 weeks off.

I was gonna give your post a like til your final sentence. Disagree there.

Hmm Lugo was available last offseason. Sox asleep at the wheel. We needed cheap pitching and coulda got him. 8-1.

Another crazy ending for Sox second nite in a row. Pham with the deep drive. Was anybody on base? I saw the highlight but not if anybody was on base on the great catch in cf. Guys, Pham is the real deal this season. He can help a contender, folks. I don't wanna lose him but if the Cubs or Royals or somebody needs some pop they'd be smart to inquire about Pham, the most tasty treat on the South Side since Spam on white bread. Is Flexen a bum? I'm starting to not like him much. Lee is looking like an MLB player still. And Julks nice game. Lip Man deserves credit for telling us the Sox would lose most every game this stretch.

Guys ... give it up for Brother Rice's finest Mike Massey. I told u all we needed him, not fricking Lopez for 2B this season. Massey is over .290, six homers I believe, good defense. Tonight hit a 3-run bomb for KCR. Mike Massey looks like he might be one of BR's most successful sports grads ever if he keeps this up. He looks hitterish finally which is prolly a testament to KC's hitting coach. He's improved steadily. p.s. You folks gotta admit Br Rice is one, fine bastion of learning. Crusaders is a good nickname too IMO.

I wonder if Eloy has any supporters left. Do any of you actually want to keep him? Can't believe he's already 27 and this unreliable. Probably a nice guy. Certainly set for life with the huge contract. I wonder if Eloy ever considers changing his body. You'd think some hammy experts would have been able to help/advise him.

The ump crew has to be suspended. Seriously, 9.9 out of every 10 fans would know that was not interference. It's incomprehensible the ump crew could be that dumb.

Why didn't we appeal the game? They should replay the game.

My point is if they all need Tommy John eventually anyway, let em throw 130-150 pitches per game not half that total. The analytics era has wrecked baseball. Of course in theory pitchers are gonna get hit the third time thru the order. Special pitchers, Mark Buehrle I love you, can work their way thru 9 innings.
