Well thankfully benching Tim for a game worked really well.

So for the record there is a WORLD of distance between your stoopid extremes. You can be somewhere between an "obedient lacky" and spending every waking second crying and upset about something you can't control. You REALLY want to hurt the team? Desert them. Quit watching, listening, posting, tweeting, and everything else to do with them. The opposite of obedient lackey isn't perpetual anger, it is apathy. It is not caring. All you showing up daily shows this franchise is that they still own you.

It's April. It's in the Eastern Time Zone. It's a getaway day.

If our manager is going to make him a weak side platoon player, he might as well be trade bait and finish out his fate as the next Tatis.

That's exactly what he wants, because that is his go to move. It's his Leury in the 3 hole move, if you will.

By "it" do you mean Leury Garcia? It's harsh, but I am listening.

Personally I am waiting for the writer who comes out and states that Tony is doing this on purpose to distract from the mess that Dallas and the defense was yesterday.

Enjoy!

The Sox spend half a decade rebuilding, only to waste it on Tony LaRussa. It just hurts.

Let's go live to Tim Anderson to get his reaction on this line up...

The thing is Leury would be absolutely fine doing exactly what he is good at, which should be getting 350-400 ABs a year around the IF, and OF if needed, not really starting, but getting about 4 days a week in the field mostly around getting the real starters days off. There is also nothing wrong with giving him specific match ups. The problem isn't Leury, it's how Tony is using him.

For the record, Francona has Jose Ramirez in the line up for the 3rd time in 24 hours.

Funny to see him using "stan" now.

Looks like Steve Stone did tho

We couldn't be so lucky.

This is in another thread, but also relevant.
