I think RR deserves to be fired. Will they do it? I don't know. I would be fine with Ozzie but I doubt the Sox will hire him. It is hard for people to let go of old grudges. Not sure who would take over but maybe Big Frank would agree to do it.

Dude, why not respond with some text? Looks like you have the proverbial carmine derrier. ?

Mazara and Collins for Benintendi. Resign McCann. Sign Bauer Bring up Vaughn as DH and let let's see what he can do. Leury and Engel stay. Maybe Dyson as well. Renteria gets replaced.

What's with the sports savant shit? My opinion is based on common sense and my own experience with sports injuries. Several games back, Eloy hit first base awkwardly and hopped around to take weight off it after he passed the bag.. He was trying to walk the pain off and wincing. Renteria then came out to talk to him. After a brief discussion Renteria decided to leave him in rather than opting for a pinch runner. . Eloy then had to run the bases hard. He came up lame and had to leave the game. Eloy re-injured the same ankle a few games later. The re-injured ankle caused him to miss most of the play-off series. Fuk Renteria. He makes bad decisions left and right. I hope they can him.

I don't think Vaughn is "serviceable" replacement for Jose Abreu or Grandal at 1B. He is short, lacks reach and has not demonstrated that he can pick the ball out of the dirt on short hops. At this point. he looks like DH, and no one would have a problem with that if he proves that he can rake. EE is probably gone so that roster spot will be open.

OK, as a counterpoint, link us a video of Vaughn playing D or running the bases. I am not suggesting he will never play 1b/3B or outfield at a major league level nor have I read that coaches believe he is ready to play one of those positions in the majors. I just want to see the evidence that cause some to project him at any position on the field.

I then questioned where Vaughn would play Vaughn has not proven that he can play defense at any position at a major league level. He is a tank that lacks the speed required to be an outfielder and the flexibility/reach required at 1B/3B. He is a RH version of Jake Burgur...a possible DH, but not a position player. If Vaughn can hit well enough to be a full time DH, he will be added to the roster to fill EE's spot. Then the issue will be whether Collins/Grandal can perform better offensively and defensively than the tandem of Grandal/Collins, Stated another way, are the WSox willing to replace productive and proven veteran players with prospects on a team that is in their competitive window.

Mindful of the following caveat: "2. Anything politicians do concerning coronavirus is fair game. The Biden / Trump mask on Memorial Day story is fair game, legislation discussed is fair game, racial disparities in the handling/impact of coronavirus are fair game. " what are the parameters for discussing Trump's Covid-19 infection ? This is a huge story that potentially impacts all Americans. Would a separate thread be advisable?

"Sox having a 72.4% win probability after Laureano struck out in the bottom of the 4th. " Which is bulshit given the fact that 5 innings were left against a team that was starting to hit in their home ballpark and Crochet and Bummer were already used.

Renteria did not take Eloy out after he initially injured his ankle stepping on first base. Eloy probably aggravated that injury when he ran the bases following that. Renteria made a farce out of the last game with his foolhardy decisions, like issuing an intentional walk in the midst of a 5 walk inning. I can't focus all of my ire toward Renteria though. Keuchel had a terrible game 2 which allowed Oakland back in the series. Michael Kopech also has to be mentioned. Game 3 could have been his game. He let the team and White Sox fans down because he could not get his own affairs in order.

I think they will fire Renteria and I hope they do.

FWIW I looked at the video of Crochet leaving the mound and he did not appear to be in pain. Not sure that means anything but I thought i would mention it

My guess is that jerk will be asymptomatic. He will then go out and claim that it is no big deal, he has great genes, no problem, who needs masks, etc.

I felt terrible that Heuer gave that home run up, That was a ball buster. The guy just guessed right on location and speed and wailed on it. I can't wrap my mind around this play-off series loss yet.

bulsh1t

Rodon just made his last pitch in a Sox uniform
