oh the irony.

GTFO with that reasonable take.

Hey he'll immediately connect with Bauer!

I mean he works at his bosses' pleasure. He hsould just quit if he had some pride.

Well this move cements that Hahn isn't fully in charge. I don't know why he continues to work in Chicago honestly.

wow.

It sounds like it. Bad process even if it works.

OK I now dislike the move. What a stupid ass release.

I honestly have very little opinion. I have no idea how he's going to manage and how the players will react to him. Frankly I'm not going to take the opinion of blue checks on twitter as gospel. I'm not happy they signed him; I wanted Hinch -- but I'm not going to pan the move until I see him manage. If he does dumb shit I'll rip him like I ripped Rick every single game.

Have they announced the rest of the coaching staff?

I'm looking forward to what Hahn has to say at the presser to say the least. It seems like they had a laser focus on TLR (which in itself I'm neutral on) and I'm curious who else they interviewed.

What a wild offseason and it's not even November. I'm completely "meh" on this move. I have no idea what to expect.

He can def hit for power and wouldn't at all be a bad emergency backup in case TA gets a bad injury.

So will TA!

He's a dukie. That's good enough for me to dislike him.

Now that's a hot take.

In general I do think people here (looking at you Jack) misperceive how people like Tim and Tony operate. These are not wilting flowers otherwise they wouldn't be where they are in their profession. If there are differences they will talk it out and I'd expect even if the talk didn't go well that both would carry on as professionals.

I wonder if the hold up on announcing it is that they are working on getting player approval from the leaders? Could be.

lol, like a ticket agent is going to bad mouth the club. people believe a lot of silly stuff they read online that's for sure.

You just summed up the entire barstool brand. Sadly this style plays with zoomers and even many older people.

Yea I've said this for awhile if Hahn doesn't have full authority he's cucking himself and nothing good will come of it for the Sox and Hahn. If they hire La Russa it's fair to ask how much control he really has in the C suite.

I'd be cool never seeing barstool Dave here again. We got enough blowhards.

I bet they talk it out like strong men.

Well damn.

Some people are still holding IBM stock too. The breakout is coming!
