Fire Pedro Grifol
I'd personally go with Jirschelle. Let him make some mistakes, and have some growing pains. Make sure he isn't Pedro Jr. when the team has the horses to win.

I don't expect it to happen, but......
The White Sox are farther from getting out of last place than any other AL team is of first place. Pedro Grifol era? Just flush it.

Barfield and 2023 DBacks trotted out there by Merkin as a parallel with current plight, and Grifol cliches abound
I would like to know why last night Pedro didn't say the team was flat. Wasn't it basically the same game as the night he finally popped off, except against inferior pitching?

D backs back under .500 this year.

5/29 Sox Vs. Jays 6:40PM CT
Listening to Schriffen, Pedro is great, most of the players are studs. It's amazing they ever lose, let alone almost every night.

Fucking flat

5/29 Sox Vs. Jays 6:40PM CT
For some reason, I think if the Sox go meekly into the night and become the first White Sox team ever to get swept an entire homestead of at least 7 games, Pedro is gone. 99% chance I'm wrong, but it just feels right.

I'll take anyone. It's the time to see if they can develop into something when the team is actually ready to win. JR didn't want to waste time. Pedro in the dugout is a huge waste of time.

5-28, Toronto @ Sox 640CDT
Sox will try to avoid being swept for the 9th time of the season tonight. Last year, they were swept 8 times and lost 101 games. This year it didn't even take to Memorial Day to get to 8. Can't waste a year.

Fire Pedro Grifol
His brown nosing has no limits. A good evaluator of talent? $181 million payroll lost 101 games. Highest payroll in the division 15-41 and have pretty much clinched last place in May.

Fire Pedro Grifol
It’s hard to fathom who else in the world would think Chris Getz as the GM and Pedro Grifol as a manager is a good idea. I predicted the Sox to win 68 games this year, and I am an idiot, They would have to go 53-53 the rest of the way to do that.

Fire Pedro Grifol
I still find it funny some are still blaming at least some of the woes on injuries. The Sox probably don’t sign Pham if the 3 don’t get hurt, and he’s been their best player. And the team is going to pay $8 million for Moncada and ILoy to go away once this season ends.

Sammy Peralta was just illusion
Obviously the Sox knew Clevinger had an issue. I don’t know their fascination with Peralta, but maybe they think no one will claim him, or maybe Getz was just bored that day.

You want to be entertained watching a Sox game? There are a few on youtube with Harry and Jimmy. Just classic. Ripping all the bad, stupid plays.

Rooting against the Sox
They have 1 qualified hitter with an OPS over .600.

If Fedde performs well and is traded, and Crochet hits an innings limit, what are the last 2 months going to look like?

A quote that really stood out in a story about another Chicago sports franchise...
Sox used to do the same. Then they won the WS, so a number was what you were. After that wore off, it was good again, then COVID hit and they had their excuse not to go the extra mile again.

Fire Pedro Grifol
I understand what you are writing, but I don’t believe ANYONE ripping Pedro constantly, which includes me, doesn’t think the Sox would be awful no matter who managed them. This team has made the same mistakes over and over for 217 games. He cannot manage. And he is afraid of veterans. Finally popped off and said what he should have said in April 2023. And what happens? He benches the 2 rookies. And if you think I am playing Monday morning QB, check this site. I called it way before any of us had a line up. And they get 1 run today. Someone has to go. 15-40 with 10 as high as you can draft should be unacceptable. For some reason it isn’t.

Why was Maldonado hitting in the 7th? Pedro must have like his afkustments.

Interesting postgame comments 5/26...
He didn't do anything but go hitless like the rest of the Sox starting line up. Pedro, per usual just takes it out on rookies.

Interesting postgame comments 5/26...
I’m guessing what will happen today is both Lee and Ramos will be out of the line up. Pedro can go back to using youngsters as an example while giving vets a free pass.

Interesting postgame comments 5/26...
This is really something Pedro should have said literally 200 games ago. So I doubt it will do any good. I think he sees the writing on the wall, and this was his break the glass move.. He’s soon a goner. They will say it’s not his fault but something needs to be done. But there is plenty of blame he should take.

Pedro throwing a Hail Mary! He’s right, but he’s ignored it for a season and a third.
