May 28, 20223 yr Hopefully, this is a sign that FO realize that changes need to be made, and that they can't wait. Getting two innings out of Keuchel every five days wasn't cutting it.

That is telling to me. Yes very telling! Might just show a little to the fans and players that the owner/front office actually give a shit! Hopefully more of these big moves in the future!

He's probably doing the same eat pie shit come next season for Grandal. Rick Hahn should have been fired today along with Dallas Keuchel. This isn't a performance based organization. You forget who the owner is.

This isn't the 50's and 60's when the Sox won on pitching and defense. When is Lynn coming back? In the meantime we need VV starting.

Getting two innings out of Keuchel every five days wasn't cutting it. We were practically punting 20% of our games with DK starting. That is over 30 games per season equivalent.. No team can overcome that.

May 28, 20223 yr So that makes it 2 years in a row now where we've eaten a considerable amount of money to DFA someone mid-season. I think we still owe Keuchel around $12 million the rest of the year. Hahn is so good at wasting money lol.
May 28, 20223 yr Hahn had no choice but to take this one on the chin…and hope Sox fans blame Wheeler’s wife/fiance more, lol.

Pretty sure they have to come up with that money more quickly than the regular salary schedule…someone could confirm.

May 28, 20223 yr Bringing up Mendick might mean there’s more moves to make. Lynn will be back soon so calling up another pitcher doesn’t seem to be necessary at this time. The starting rotation won’t need Lynn for a week or so

Yes and you got to think sooner or later Jerry's got to say hey you're costing me a lot of money and we're not getting better.

We brought him in partially for his playoff experience.... then he sucked against the Athletics and was left off the playoff roster last year.
