Yep, he could have been convicted last month and Jerry would have still hired him.

Just think it will be a slow offseason with owners trying to be cheap and recoup some of the lost revenue. Didn’t we sign Grandal right around Thanksgiving and everyone was shocked he signed so quickly? Unless it’s an overpay I don’t think any big names are going to sign until the winter meetings which go 6-10 December.

Yep. JR sabotaging the whole thing. If you asked me a couple weeks ago I would have laughed at this idea. Now I’m not so sure about that....

That won’t happen before December 8th either unfortunately so lots of stagnant time upcoming

Not asking the question is exactly what Reinsdorf wants. He wants for time to go by, pretend this doesn’t exist and it will all go away over time. Not asking the question plays right into this PR nightmare

I’ll play the game, however LaRussa being terminated won’t happen but I would bring is Joe Espada at that point

I think you are going to see a lot of 1 year deals to be honest with teams wanting to be cheap due to covid

This whole offseason has been a shit show for the Sox, good god talk about setting the franchise on fire. Good job Jerry.....

How does that all out player protest/refusal to play for him sound right about now ?

Doubtful, Jerry had every intention of sweeping this under the rug

Pretty damn sad that one move is putting this entire rebuild in jeopardy.....

He looked tanked at the presser so it wouldn’t be surprising. Prolly woke up after all of this and immediately thought wtf did I just do

Why is that?

It’d be sweet if all the players banded together and push back against the hiring, something unprecedented. I think the players have more power than most think.

Garfien is having a player on the podcast in a few days he said on the LaRussa hiring podcast

Are we being serious at the moment? His shirt unbuttoned bothers people? Have you guys ever been to the beach or pool where males walk around with no shirts on.....c’mon guys....

Hahahahahaha great opening sentence.....c’mon man

Absolutely only good thing that can come out of this hire is Jerry opening up payroll

Sure doesnt help that half the team is prolly still looking up who the hell this guy even is.

I think justifiably so, the team just did the exact opposite of what you’ve been preparing to do for the past year or so, the writing had been on the wall this entire time, you could have hired a manager to grow with the team flip the switch to modern baseball and instead you do this. Just shocking and makes me more pissed the more I talk about it but it’s like watching a train wreck and not being able to look away.

Chuck has one player coming on the podcast in a few days to talk about it....kinda telling tho if you have to give a player a few days to digest this to give the politically correct answer instead of right away

Yep, this honestly should have been a day of celebration and excitement for Whitesox fans but it’s turned into the opposite feeling of a funeral.

Can I change my username to WeekendAtTonys now? This is no longer going to be on Hahn when this is said and done with

I wonder where Keuchel lands on this outlook ? I bet he’s an unhappy camper, I have a feeling he may have been told one thing and then found out blindly about this hire.....

Another project....yay.....complete trash
