I guess I just dislike this team so much I can't think of them being actually better than any recent Sox team. I guess Hahn hasn't sucked that bad the last couple seasons then.

Thank you. I'm also leaning that way. But eventually we'll eliminate human players as well. Might be a hundred years from now, but it seems inevitable to me that virtual reality will replace sports reality. B

Is the team better than 2020? Tony still sucks but I don't think the team is better. Maybe I'm just so down on Harrison, Leury, the loss of starting pitching, depth at catcher, etc to see it. I'm with you in that I'd rather have Ricky.

@South Side Hit Men you got my attention with most fans don't watch the playoffs only the regular season? What are you basing that on? The Field of Dreams game was the most watched regular season games with about 5.9 million viewers. Over 10 million watched the opening game of the WS.

Oddly most of the public comments since Tony was hired have been positive. Liam even stated playing for Tony factored into his decision to come to Chicago. Tim has backed him. He gives guys too many chances in my book and is too loyal to players for my taste but I could see the guys playing for him liking that. We hate him, but our perspective is different.

I'm not certain that you always fire the GM when you fire a manager. Especially if by most accounts the manager wasn't the GM's pick.

The beauty of this organization there are so many people to blame they all can escape scrutiny if we allow it. Somehow all these guys that should be fired produced the only back to back playoff teams in team history. In order I'd like to see leave Tony Hahn JR

Too bad they can't hire a PR firm to help. They spent all their extra money on Leury and a couple part time relievers.

Agreed. Which is why I'm not all worked up to fire Hahn or JR to sell. Just please keep Tony away.

I agree that you just know. And maybe those closest to her knew. But she looked good just last Tuesday. Certainly not looking like she was 48 hours away from death.

At what age will you begin wishing for a painless passing? It seems like she was in reasonably good mental and physical health. A 100 year birthday party would have been epic.

I just keep checking this thread to make sure he isn't coming back anytime soon.

Fans of about half of the franchises would be stunned. But we're the Sox. I'll be stunned if he isn't Hahn and JR's first choice with a high mileage used second baseman as option two. It will be shock and awe if our opening day second baseman is under thirty with above league average stats over the past three seasons.

Under doctor's care amid "concerns". I find the history and protocols fascinating. It's so opposite anything in our society. Wishing her a speedy recovery from whatever ails her. Queen Elizabeth II Under Medical Supervision as Health Concerns Grow https://nyti.ms/3x8ZsOF

I just don't see how we can win the division without Tony in the dugout. Said no Sox fan this century.

I'm waiting for the Royals to play their youth and basically pack it in for the year. Them in playing for draft position will hurt us.

Have I mentioned I really dislike this season?

I guess I rushed home for nothing?

Better than JR making a profit. $5 Mill should be player minimums.

I wish Gio could just get back to Gio level. As much as I want to toss all the blame on Tony, injuries have been a big part of the hole we're in. As noted above we've rushed people back who aren't at 100%. Damn Lynn did look great.

True. But I'm more concerned about this team winning each series the rest of the way. ?

Agreed about leaving him behind. But he was here so I'd like to see him back next opener to collect a WS ring for this season then go away.

Not a Beckham fan at all.

Did I mention how much I hate this season?
