Okay so yeah a manager deals with players. So you just described what I was talking about while acting like you were disagreeing for some reason.

I can’t stress how much I would hate Yadi

Not sure we are good at guessing what things mean. Any negative news is always assumed to be a brilliant PR smokescreen.

Also hiding the us political posts thanks guys for making me work

There are a lot of interesting ( not necessarily in good way) dynamics here but a big one to me is how is LaRussa going to handle having to prove himself for the first time in 35 years? He has been deferred to for years with his success, now he not only doesn’t have that, he has to prove it...at age 76. But, I think we have a great group. If Tony is ready to work, I think the guys will rally anyway.

Kris Bryant for RF has been a pet of mine for a bit.

Sooo Clint hurdle huh

Ah, we’ve reached the part of the cycle where we start talking nfl.

Seems good to me.

Lol ”so I’ve had time to think it over. This hire is garbage”

He can actually be pretty funny in post games but yes it is pretty dry and acerbic. He's like ryan from the OC, but older.

The good news is this means I have 40 more years to learn how to be a baseball manager.

You have seen him more than me but this didn't seem that different from his late cardinals days where he'd mumble out a few words.

The worst part about that graphic is it looks like Tony is holding up a picture of his younger self for some reason.

yeah, was going to ask you. The reality behind a mistake like this is far more benign. They make a bunch to be ready, they use the same template, they forget that that was even a signature and it starts blending into the background, they rush to get it out on announcement.\ Still funny though!

I get why you say this but this is kinda overboard for me. There are plenty of managers they could plug in. Look at what Dusty just did. It's not like there's a bunch of proprietary stuff only he could know like the recipe of cocacola ors omething.

yeah they were at least self-aware. On the other hand, it looked like tricked hahn into leaving the office for takeout, then locked him out and he spent the last three days pounding the door to come in.

There was an inappropriate post that was hidden and action was taken. We are being fairly lenient here, please get a hold of yourselves.

Ok so that came from me and I regret quoting that section because it was just ridiculous entitled cards fan ranting. I meant to just quote the list of all the player feuds.

so I'm still on nascar on my nbcsc

thanks, yeah mlb isn't carrying it

For the record I'd be okay with warren buffet as manager.

I want tony to demand all his coaches take roids and get s w o l l as possible.

Well, in their defense, there already is a player saying they wouldn't want to play for him and other reporters. At that point it doesn't seem so absurd. As for him not being able to relate and players revolting, well, there is his history of very public fights with players that maybe they don't want in a fun clubhouse. 4. There are his many quotes the last 5-6 years on him being against the Tatis Jr 3-0 grand slam, how analytics are out of control, on the other hand - you say its absurd. 5. It thankfully is not the sox worst move. For that I agree, there are far too many awful ones.

I went to a charity luncheon last year with all sox HOFers. Raines, Baines, Fisk, Thome, La Russa and Thomas couldn't make it. That's our coaching staff I'd bet.
