Somehow Lance Briggs seems to have been the one who started it. Nothing is official, but it seems fairly likely/a foregone conclusion at this point unless TLDR changes his mind. Rumor that Dave Duncan (pitching coach) will not be coming along. There's about 5 different things in this comment that make me uncomfortable. I don't like the way this is heading.

October 29, 20205 yr So we had a GM who spent a few years assembling a long term run. The minute we get to the point of this team being ready to compete for a long time our geriatric owner decides to over rule the GM to hire his bestie who is also geriatric. The bestie will have all sorts of powers and will be for all intensive purposes unfireable. Decisions will be made in the short term that will have massive long term consequences. You might as well have Kenny steering the ship now because the chips are all in now if TLR is on the team. I cant wait for TLR to be making GM level decisions on this team. That should go well. Next up Guaranteed Rate to start peddling reverse mortgages as part of our new identity. Edited October 29, 20205 yr by southsideirish71

October 29, 20205 yr After reading the NY post article today on the Mets sale and de blasio, maybe Jerry will bring in A-Rod to mentor him as next Sox owner lol

October 29, 20205 yr This LaRussa bullshit is exactly why they will not win shit until Jerry Reinsdorf sells or is dead.
