July 24, 20232 yr Just watched it on You Tube. Wow...he and McGuffey bury Grifol. Just absolutely skewer him. He acts like "his s%*# don't stink..." - Garfien. Talks about his arrogance (which is par for the course for this franchise/front office isn't it?????) Worth watching/listening to. I've always considered Garfien a house-man but I've got to give him some credit...he is really pissed off and laying into this franchise now. Guess he isn't worried about his job anymore for some reason. Edited July 24, 20232 yr by Lip Man 1

July 24, 20232 yr Meh. Grifol is the obvious scapegoat and the company men probably know he’s fair game. Wake me up when they take JR to task for the state of this org…

Wake me up when they take JR to task for the state of this org… They actually have by association when they talk about the shortcomings of the front office and how accountability is needed. They have mentioned JR by name at times saying how it's up to him to change things and how "miserable" he is.

July 24, 20232 yr Yawn boring. Grifol may be a s%*# stain on the carpet, but Rick/Jerry/Kenny are the huge pile in the middle of the room.

It’s not Pedro’s fault they suck, but he’s done nothing to show he is a capable major league manager. The team needs to cut its losses.

The team needs to cut its losses. Agree but he’s not the primary issue. If he managed Tampa they’d still be in the playoffs. If Kevin Cash was our manager we’d still be a pile of crap.
July 25, 20232 yr To be fair to McGuffey he consistently calls out the org saying they failed to complete the rebuild
July 25, 20232 yr The hate for Grifol is misplaced because the other cowards are all hiding Kenny (i have always liked Kenny but he has hidden) Hahn Reinsdorf The real cowards! They are leading the slaughter of Grifol while they hide.

Jerry Reinsdorf - 43 years (1981-2023) Kenny Williams - 36 years (1986-1989 & 1992-2023) Rick Hahn - 21 years (2002-2023) Pedro Grifol - Nearing 9 months (November 1 - July 24) It’s Pedro’s fault. Got it Chuck. Garfien had the same spiel after Ricky led them to the best winning percentage in the Hahn era, a mark which still stands. Chuck is NBCSCH Bob Nightengale, and also needs to go.

Enjoy Seymour Hersh’s independent reporting and books, one of the best in the business. Rest In Peace Chicago Daily News (12/23/1885 - 3/4/1978) & Chicago Sun Times (10/5/1947 - 1/9/1984).

It is set up to have the new guy be the reason the team sucks. To me he does suck but he is 3-4 down the line for where the blame should be
July 25, 20232 yr To be fair, they usually are really critical towards the front office. Today was just more Grifol centered. Edited July 25, 20232 yr by Bob Sacamano

He is always talking about how the issues with this organization all lead back to the front office not doing their jobs properly.
