ThirdGen Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 30 minutes ago, Pale Sox said: “You guys always hear from the most negative fans,” he said. “The fans I talk to never come up to me and say, ‘Rick, this is the start of just the same stuff as last year.’ “They seem to seek you guys out in the comments sections. Imagine that.” - Rick Hahn a few days ago. He should head on down to the ticket sales office and ask what the now former season ticket holders told the reps over the offseason. I'm guessing they haven't sold a lot of packages since the season started also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause this Rays team ended last season terribly. Now they look nearly unbeatable. they're good because they know how to spend money. meanwhile Hahn is paying multiple contracts 10s of millions of dollars to play for other teams or to retire because he's the worst GM in all of major league baseball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 I think some are missing the sarcasm … and taking posters’ comments much more literally than intended in following Hahn’s more recent “inspirational” quotes for fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's part of the problem not the solution. Batting Andrus leadoff and Zavala 9th is some peak Ozzie non sense. It was never a good idea to hire a manager from a losing organization, that has been passed over for manager at the losing organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any good coach/manager in the Rays organization that could have been recruited instead of Pedro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems all the negative ones flock to a message board. Imagine that. I hate being such a negative fan. It sucks. My problem is I need to stop watching the sport I've grown to hate for so many reasons. If I can't enjoy the games I need to divorce myself from new baseball. My disdain started with the tanking which I figured wouldn't work and didn't. I need to work on being more positive or finally leave the game for good. Sorry some of us are so down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Girardi in from the Cubs booth or any other former manager of a winning organization except TLR. Maybe even Ozzie who would be better than Pedro. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
