It was the best breakup of all time. Neither one of us was bitter towards the other or upset. Too bad they all can't go that way.
October 12, 20205 yr 7 minutes ago, Tony said: lol. No comment on your desire to constantly defend Ricky....when clearly even this FO had lost total faith? I never constantly felt the need to defend anyone. He managed game 3 badly and is paying the price. Ricky being fired is fine. He wasn't the reason the sox didn't win, and he did a nice job with the young guys, but the sox didn't think he gave them the best chance to win in the big spot. they would know that better than anyone given that they know the directives he was given. The insinuation that because I hold the players at majority fault 99.9% for failures means I endlessly supported renteria is nonsense. This boards never ending negativity in game threads wasnt rational or reasonable because he got fired. It was still overreactive nonsense where people blamed the manager for damn near 50% of the losses. Edited October 12, 20205 yr by Look at Ray Ray Run

October 12, 20205 yr Re: Jirschele I find it hard to imagine that they're going to hire a guy younger than their three highest paid players.

Aside from the cheating, there was bad blood between Hinch/his family and the Sox from when they drafted him as an amateur. Generally, JR holds a grudge. I'd be surprised if it was Hinch.

October 12, 20205 yr Just now, Nokona said: Stoney said it sounds like Coop will be moved up in the org Wonder what that would be? Some new title like Director of Pitching Development or something like that?

October 12, 20205 yr Ultimately don't think it matters who they bring in unless they figure out the pitching situation.
