I’m sure they gave him a canned answer.

It’s really gonna take the journalists and beat writers to keep pressing them and La Russa about this.

Jesus ******* christ, fire this moron right now.

I think Harold has guys connected to Jerry and Jimmy has guys connected to Hahn. That’s the disconnect.

I really don’t think they thought this was going to get out.

Bernstein went over it on his show and said they don’t have anything in their bylaws that other investors or board members could force JR’s hand.

I honestly just think they never expected anyone to find out. He’d get charged, quietly spend the day or whatever in jail and no one would find out. Someone tipped Passan off to this 100%. People aren’t just searching the Maciopa County court records to look for TLR.

The only way TLR leaves is if he keeps getting questioned and pressed about this and decides to leave.

Something like this could be forgotten about 4 or 5 years ago. The issue here is there are always going to be alcoholic or drunk jokes thrown his way throughout the season. It’s not going to go away like they think it will.

Robert said earlier today that he’s excited to learn from Tony being so young. Here you go Luis.

ESPN just pushed back their announcement that was supposed to be tomorrow.

Conspiracy theory: Hahn leaked this Passan.

Lol no way, we’ll get an apology and that’ll be that.

I’ve just gotten to the acceptance point where I think this season is going to be a massive success or an unmitigated disaster filled with drama. There’s no inbetween.

I don’t think Jerry cares about any of this. I literally think he just did this because he thought it would be cool for him to win a World Series with his friend. He’s is a slave to sentiment, it’s obnoxious.

And Tim is not the type of person to shut his mouth and fall in line if there’s an issue.

Yep, it makes this whole thing feel very dirty. It’s Jerry’s team and he has every right to do it. It’s still a really shitty thing to do to your employee. I also think theres just a subset of Sox fans who just hate Rick Hahn and love that Jerry dumped on him.

What? Have you seen their social’s? Tim, Giolito, Keuchel, Moncada are all pretty active and do have thousands of followers.

Still find it kind of weird that no player has commented on the hiring, even just a tweet.

Checked for what exactly?
