  1. Burke isn’t going to be in the big leagues long with this command. Can’t throw strikes and when he does, it’s often a hanger. Who would have ever guessed the pitcher who couldn’t throw strikes in the minors can’t throw strikes at this level.
  2. This team looks the same under this manager as the last manager.
  3. He convinced Venable to make the Spider-Man meme choice of WSox over Marlins and he got a fired assistant hitting coach to come to the franchise!
  4. If they win 30 games this year and every prospect he’s traded for tanks, I could see it happening. Of course, Thome would be next I assume.
  5. I will never criticize the Crochet trade, as the return made sense. Same as I felt with Quintana and Sale deals. It’s the Fedde and Cease deals that didn’t make much sense, in terms of player return.
  6. Would any other team have hired him after 2024?
  7. It just seems Colson has had a real issue with the improved command in AAA. He’s still selective, but he’s falling behind in counts and/or taking strike 3. He has too much swing and miss in his game to keep falling behind. Also, I’m sure other teams know he struggles with velocity up in the zone.
  8. Can’t imagine doing victory laps about someone being bad when the current roster is hitting below .200 as a team.
  9. I was actually surprised how upset he seemed when he got sent down.
  10. Agreed completely. It’s why I said he would have been better off overseeing the changes while letting someone else be GM. So far, his talent evaluation seems horrific.
  11. I wonder how bad it would have to be for some to admit Getz has been a bust so far.
  12. At what point do you send him down to AA to help his confidence?
  13. He will be back up if/when Benintendi gets put on the IL
  14. For Austin, when I see comments like he makes too much contact, which results in a lot of ground balls and a lack of pull side power….it definitely sets off MDS. His power numbers are really bad.
  15. Austin’s pipeline write up is way too similar to that of Madrigal’s.
  16. Worst player in baseball immediately since he got to Chicago.
  17. Colson can stop his Zavala impersonation
  18. Also, 156 at bats without a homer for Madrigal….sorry, I meant Luis Robert
  19. On the new Netflix Red Sox documentary, after they beat the WSox in Chicago, you hear Cora say “let’s get out of this shithole”.
  20. Is Grant Taylor supposed to start this week?
  21. Colson just took 3 straight pitches, 3 called strikes.
  22. Nah he’s performing too well
