Please don't.

Better hitters, better fundamentals, better pitchers, and out managed. Oh well. 

That’s actually amazing news. Please retire again Tony

I'm hoping he realizes the game has passed him by.

Tony says it is first up to the FO, and if they want him back, then the players must also say they want him back, if not, he will walk away.

Says that is how he has operated since he had security after his first several seasons in MLB.

Don't get me excited like that.

Damn Correa went in on Rodon and Tepera in his post game remarks.

What'd he say?

Correa just said he was sitting high fastball in his AB against Rodon. This team really needs to think about its pitch selection.

What did Rodon do? 

Supposedly Graveman was looking at the Sox dugout after his inside pitches to Abreu

Then why did he take 0-1 high fastball

He should have been. The high fastball was his only reliable pitch today

Scumbag org nothing new.

That was 100% on purpose. It's a 3-2 count, he'd rather hit him than walk him.

Well that’s dumb by Correa

Of course he is only worried about the hbp.

Grandal calls for fastballs with runners on, because that is all he is comfortable catching.

The Sox really need to bring in two defensive catchers, and either add another DH/1B or move him and or others. Problem is the Dodgers want no part of him, and there are few if any teams willing to take on that salary.

Scott Merkin just posted that, " La Russa has the desire to continue to manage. " so we have that to look forward to.

Correa was commenting that Rodon was over there pumping his chest after his strikeout in the 1st inning and he knew a fastball was coming at 0-2, with a live crowd,  wanting to pump his chest again.

 

That's why he mocked it pumping his chest after his double.

I'm hoping his fan club leaves in protest, as well.

He said he's back if his players want him back. Don't think players have an issue with him
