Except both of these things can be true:
1) Tony La Russa was absolutely overmatched as a manager and made poor decisions throughout his Sox tenure that limited this team
AND
2) Rick Hahn sucks at drafting and sucks at acquiring talent and this group doesn’t play well together and is talented but doesn’t know how to live up to it.
I came back from Galena this morning through pretty moderate rainfall almost the entire way. Im surprised they delayed this, because I would think worse weather is coming…
I want someone to photoshop a team image with an oversized, faded image of Leury's face behind all of them, looming overhead. That's going to be 2023 in a fucking nutshell. Can't win with this dogshit org assembling patchwork AAAA pieces to cover the "talented" mount rushmore of injuries
Why on earth would Colas sit today. That's the biggest head scratcher of them all. It's a righty pitcher, we have a day off tomorrow, he's been one of your most consistent pieces. Pedro really knows how to kill momentum with these guys and these rest days. Just play them. Jeez.
My solution would be to wait until we hear about TA’s injury today, for one thing, and for a second thing, seeing how the team plays for the next three weeks before writing them off in a dissertation that is 67 moves ahead of itself.
Yes they aren’t playing well but come on, they aren’t going to be out of it in April. You think they’re going to go 4-20? Even 8-16 won’t be out of it yet.
