And didn’t blow anyone else away except for Sox management/ownership

Billy Butler available? Mark Teahan needs a job, was he there in KC when Grifol was there

Your 2023 starting 2B?

Yeah it makes the hiring a little more than meh for me….we shall see

Charlie Montoyo bench coach—per Dan Bernstein

Best part of the hire is hopefully like it’s been mentioned before is to clean house of absolutely everyone on the coaching staff no matter who got the job

Is there a window anymore? Or are they waiving the White Flag with this hire and starting another rebuild. Another potential reason for not having Sox Fest?

They also interviewed and passed on him when they hired Matheny ….

He’s their yes man

#VoteForPedro…..

Ha….the Royals didn’t want him. Shouldn’t that tell you something?

I imagine the Sox interview with Mendoza went something like this…. Hahn: Can you bring with you Aaron Judge on the cheap Mendoza: Why the need? You have Sheets in RF. Hahn: You are now a finalist for the manager’s job. We will get back to you before Thanksgiving…

Venezuelan. Career minor leaguer in San Francisco. 42 year old with strong leadership traits — per the score

Nada

Yep same. I would not be excited about this at all. He had been interviewed by KC once before and they went with Matheny instead and he’s literally right there to fill the manager vacancy and they haven’t done it. Hard pass.

They were also floating Dave Martinez out there, don’t know if he has been connected in any way

Listening to espn 1000 this morning and they are saying Pedro grifol is the guy to watch in this hiring process. Hanley said Jesse Rogers thinks he has the job fwiw…

You are talking about an organization who hired a guy who just got a DUI earlier in the year. To think Jerry gives a crap about what anyone else thinks when it comes to hiring his guy you are far off base with that. He doesn’t care about any kind of back lash as been proven previously

This is something this clown show of an organization would come up with. No one really knowing who is in charge from the front office down to the coaching staff

Maybe Willie Harris because he’s an Ozzie guy but I couldn’t think of anyone else

The only positives I see Ozzie bringing to this team is his fire/passion, knowledge of this team watching them every night and his connection to the Latin players on the roster. As far as his approach to how the game should be played I don’t think he would be a good fit in todays baseball.

While it might be a good fit for him to get back into the game, I see it bringing locker room divide and trouble for a brand new manager

You really think his ego would let him take a role like bench coach? Having him in this role might drive a wedge between him and a new incoming manager.
