That's nothing new. It's been like that since 2022. Best quote I read "Keep going to the bullpen until you find the guy to give up the lead. "

He hardly played at AA. Good organizations are patient in developing players. Notice the word "good".

As players get older you never know when age sets in, It made no sense for the Sox to resign him since they never have a shortage of guys that are 1B/DH material.

Sometimes change for change sake. He doesn't connect with players it appears.

LOL, you guys thinking they're gonna fire Grifol. I bet they get no hit before that happens. JR listen to fans? Isn't he the guy that blame us for not showing up? Delusional at best.

A good organization would do that. Sometimes a player wants to do that.

Lamar could probably run slightly faster.

No one was going to give up much for a rental player of his caliber. Hindsight is easy. They tried.

We assume that but some players in sports are injury prone. His career is probably done.

But there is only one naive organization I can think of to make that trade. Unfortunately that trade can't happen since he is with the organization.

Great another rushed prospect.

That's the definition of every Sox trade. There's too much anything in this organization. I equate it as nothing. We still have hopes of that lightning in a bottle.

I would think the trend is more households are viewing cable contracts these days.

Might be another guy they mess up developing. How long did he stay in AA? No sense in bringing him up either.

Scouts must know something we don't. He might be another low IQ player that can only swing a bat.

Which means a new owner would have to know what they are doing. Hiring may be even more difficult than firing.

They have the perfect manager for that.

Modern day pitchers - 10K, 5ER. It's like Vinny Testaverde throwing 5TDs, 10INT

Unfortunately I can't ignore how he handled the farm system and drafting guys like Vaughn and Madrigal.

Don't worry Grifol will still have a job.

Reminds me of the team's chairman.

Trade and value are oxymorons in the Sox kingdom. Fans have hope there are some naive GMS out there but unfortunately these seem to reside more in a certain organization we are familiar with.

1. Things he mention when he was hired about things he seen from the basement dugout about the team. 2. "I didn't like the team". He's quite clueless on what to say in our sensitive society. Plus he was eager and foolish enough to take on a team full of head cases. That's not something for a manager with no experience. This season is set up to where he can't really fail nor really succeed.

I would believe this if there were only 25 teams. I'm at the point of watching anyone but the W Sox.

Getz will be another loyalty over performance guy. That's why they get all of the Royals people.
