His destination is LF for the Sox.

125 PAs in half a season sounds about right.

The biggest problem is even if the HeGetzUs crew is right and is some wunderkind, Jerry was still lurking to TLR his GM of the Year. If we have already seen a move happen because Ishbia actually cares about winning more than something that happened 40 years ago, things are already better.

Not in NEARLY the same volume.

Which of course got put on Robert being lazy, and not the hitting coach.

That's a bit different as you can actually SEE that. It isn't something made up to fit a narrative. If Robert looked like Lance Lynn and had the same physical breakdown injuries, sure question away. If he made boneheaded plays on a regular basis, again, question away on his IQ. As it stands the dude is absolutely ripped and plays some of the best CF on the planet. He's even played while OBVIOUSLY injured. Did anyone question TLRs work ethic when he couldn't be bothered to know the rules? How about David Wells 50 pounds overweight with back injuries? Sure didn't stop Wells from shittalking Frank.

It's been a source of irritation for me for a while. It's wild how every Latin or minority player gets their work ethic questioned after injuries, but a the overweight white guys get to run their mouths about them, even when they are injured.

Seriously, we are talking about something like a decade from from now. Odds are Jerry is fertilizer and the Ishbia era is well under way, making this all moot.

I think the motivation and work ethic stuff is almost certainly BS. These guys have played through injuries for most of their careers and it has robbed them of ability. I really don't think it gets better.

Which is why this whole dance of picking up his option was weird anyway.

This is who he is. He's been this way for his whole career. He isn't a young pup anymore.

I was wondering with actual money out there, if they finally dropped the charade.

This exactly.

I feel like we will never see good Luis Robert again. I think injuries have taken their toll.

Are kids allowed to have agents now with NIL?

If you have never been, it is a fun spot.

It won't change a thing.

Plus he was another one who the minions scurried out to talk about how lazy he was after he left.

Or this reporter is doing a solid for Yoan by listing teams with bad 3Bs to try to create interest

With all dude respect, what the actual f*** are you blathering on about? There is one literally from yesterday, right on the front of the main board. One of those pops up just about every year.

There ain't no way. The Sox couldn't dump him quick enough. Dude is pushing names of teams to help a brother out.

As always, this stuff will settle itself out on the field. Unless LeBron, Roch, and Emerson run into each other in a Team USA practice, all breaking each other's necks in the next six months, The Sox get the runway of sitting and watching to decide their direction.

And then turned it into that fixating on players was a horrible thing, even though that was never said.

As of right now, #1 is the Ishbia era beginning.

You didn't though. You equated it to something that wasn't said.
