Now they have to make a decision instead of hoping this would just kind take care of itself. Rick should just not pick up TLR's calls and text back after a few of them with "sorry, been crazy busy." That process should buy at least a couple weeks 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirdGen Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I'm guessing this new found energy is somewhat related to the fact that the Sox rotation pitchers have only given up 5 ER in the last 8 games (50.1 IP). The last bad start was Giolito nine games ago. Not sure how Cairo can take credit for that. Anyone can manage with that pitching. Worse case scenario is the rotation keeps this up, everyone declares TLR's absence to be the difference and the Sox don't fix the many holes that were obvious all season. TLR has had a bad year and should have been fired, but I doubt anyone would have had the Sox playing .600 ball all year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Mite Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I finding it strange that we haven't heard as of yet exactly what is ailing TLR, medical tests don't take that long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good. I want it to be miserable there. This stupid organization can't even avoid stepping on their own dicks in whatever short window we have and they totally wasted two prime years by giving this geriatric clown all the power. I'm glad they are suffering. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Possibility TLR will join the Sox in Oakland for Dave Stewart's jersey retirement ceremony. A's planned the event for when the Sox are in town. TLR still has a home in the Bay Area but he'd need to get permission from doctors to fly from Phoenix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't show for that its probably something serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
