JR only no vote for Mets sale
This fuckin' guy would try and bargain with the girls selling lemonade on the corner. He'd pull up some figures on the wholesale cost of lemons or some shit before asking for a 5% discount.

JR only no vote for Mets sale
Bingo.

JR only no vote for Mets sale
It just cracks me up what is and isn't "crooked" among the 1 percent. JR took a stand when it might cost him a buck, bold.

Tony La Russa
Quite the thread we got going here.

Mazara and Right Field Thread
Wait there are at least two people OK with Mazara round 2?! What! He's horrible and if he flukes into producing will leave in FA. There's nothing there!

Tony La Russa
Nobody wants la russa except JR I'd imagine. Hopefully JR is too cheap as Sox can do better.
-
Tony La Russa
the fuck would he have to be bitter about? Good lord this dude quit on the team. The revisionist history around the end of his tenure is pointless. He's never managing in Chicago again and 99% he'll never manage anywhere again.

Rick Hahn is Sporting News Executive of the Year
Yea he's done a good job hard to argue otherwise. No GM is perfect and once Hahn was allowed to rebuild (I do think he was asked to not rebuild prior to 2018 by JR and KW) he did it well. He showed he's the 100% leader too firing Cooper and Renteria, which is great news for the future.

Evaluating rick Hahn as of after 2020
I give him a B. He's done a good job but not an excellent one. There are certainly worse GMs.

Sox Press Conference - 11am 10/12 - RR out as Sox manager
I wonder if Cooper will work in MLB again. Seems like the type that would rather retire than take a lower position and salary. I doubt anybody will hire him as a pitching coach right now.

AJ Hinch: does it matter to you that he cheated?
Yea I don't know how it would work but if he's looking for a better chance to win Chicago is def the place.
-
Cooper also out
Reylo should be traded for a bag of balls or cash. Cease needs a complete mechanical overhaul. Dunning just needs more reps. Dunning is not at all like the first two. Dunning had a great season.

AJ Hinch: does it matter to you that he cheated?
I just don't know enough about him to really have a strong opinion but if the Astros hired him he must be doing something right. I'm still on the Girardi train I've been on it since he was let go in NY. I really think it's time for an ass kicker as the manager. Joe makes some bad in game decisions but he's not nearly as bad as Renteria and clubhouse wise I think the team is ready for a manager that is a bit of a hardass.

IDGAF. Hire the best people. Once he's served his penance he's good to go IMO.
-
Rick Hahn, if you read this board: please don't hire a cheater.
Rich if you're reading this fan has no problem if you hire Hinch.

Sox Press Conference - 11am 10/12 - RR out as Sox manager
I said at the time even on the shitty DIII teams I was on the team knows when the manager is making bad decisions in game that are hurting them. Morale could not have been great. I'd imagine that giving Rodon that role after contributing basically jack shit for 2 years probably rubbed some guys the wrong way as well.

That's a fireable offense in and of itself. I remember being so pissed when that happened.

Sox Press Conference - 11am 10/12 - RR out as Sox manager
Gee you mean letting Eloy do his yakkety sax routine half a dozen times in LF didn't endear himself to the vets? I like Eloy but that was horse shit and hit happened many times. Hustle and get the fucking ball in.
-
Cooper also out
Goodbye grumpy old man!

Sox Press Conference - 11am 10/12 - RR out as Sox manager
This is the strongest signal yet that "business as usual" is over in the JR orgs. The bulls moves were another strong signal but this is the strongest yet as there are a lot of reasons "on paper" you could keep Rick. But this is 100% the right move Rick was holding this club back from its WS title hopes.

Also, Steve Stone apparently is a mouth piece for the org.
