He seems to be putting processes and departments in place that did not previously exist. Seems like he is at least trying to pull Jerry into how other teams are ran. Don’t know if it’ll work but it’s something.

34 years old makes me feel incredibly ancient. His philosophy is what they need, so let's hope it works out.

They ran through so many pitchers last year. Also he was okay in 16 outings with the Mariners in 2023 before he had surgery last year.

You can’t let them on the plane. Team quit on them. But the Bears are ran on par with the Sox.

Felt INCREDIBLY undertoney.

What in the f***.

Well, they aren't part of the "most"

Yeah seriously. Glad he figured it out. Something else will make him lose it eventually.

Sorry sir this is a Michael Kopech thread.

Yeah it never really looked like they didn’t care. They just sucked (and were probably very frustrated at times).

Most people that leave here continue to be bad.

Well his little intro video at least feels a little more sincere than Grifol’s “we are going to prepare to kick your ass.”

The Reds is a good opening?

Who is in here saying they trust all of this? People want to be cautiously optimistic. That's it. They HOPE it's a step in the right direction. What do you want people to be doing about this? Be mad?

No. We really don't. Only thing I am assuming is Getz/Bannister stick around. Probably Sizemore. Everything on the hitting side is up in the air.

He literally says in his post he does not expect them to be good next year or in 2026. That doesn't mean they can't start actually taking steps to improving. And people are hoping this is one of those steps.

Yeah, he was one of many. And this time he was the main person to make the call. Just because the last guy was terrible does not mean the new guy will be.

Oh I agree completely, but I think Sizemore would be good at it. Former basestealer who is hungry to do more than just coach 1b.

Yes, the first time in human history someone has said something positive about someone publicly before that person ultimately got fired.

Hope Sizemore gets named 1b coach. Wondering who will be his bench coach?

All of this has gotten very annoying. If you are going to think everything they do is meaningless then why are you still putting yourself through this?

Nevin seemed like the Sox move so I’m glad it isn’t. Guy has learned under the best. Not expecting him to make this team vastly improved next year or anything, but hopefully steps in the right direction and everyone on the same page.

I don't think anyone knows anything. Just wait for them to announce Willie Harris.

Regardless of who they hire, I'll get an antenna when spring training starts. Zero chance I'm watching the Bulls this year.

I think it would be smart, for now, to leave Santos where he is. Barons had a bunch of success last year, let him work with the new batch this year as well and we might have an actual pipeline.
