What I don't get is they apparently have no idea AJP is going to tell everyone and anyone exactly what happened. They can't be THAT clueless, can they?
It would at least suggest health isn't the reason he's now underperforming, unless he got hurt again. But the White Sox seem to be trying to run Crochet into the ground, so who knows?
I’d like to see them oromote Jirscele and let him grow into the job. JR isn’t going to pay for a top manager. So let Jirschel manage. Let him make mistakes when it doesn’t matter. See if he becomes a good manager, instead of waiting until the team may be relevant and hiring a guy like Pedro who aces interviews but sucks when it’s time to do the job.
Missed this quote from Pedro the other day. But I agree who would ever think Eloy, Robert and Moncada would get injured.
I would have never — there’s just no way to think that’s going to happen or to even envision something like that to happen
And the mental errors they made all of last year are still being made. Not paying attention to baseunners, poor baserunning, terrible relays….its obviously not all Pedro’s fault, but it’s also obvious he is a bad manager.
JR might be pacing. I’m sure the plan was for Siroka to pitch well enough to trade for a prospect the Sox can trade for Cash considerations down the road.
