Going back Roland Hemond took over as GM of the Orioles and won an Executive of the Year Award and of course Dave Dombrowski who Hawk fired because he was Roland's protegee has had great success with numerous organizations. Toronto supposedly wanted to hire KW, but that was blocked at the time by JR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't heard anything about Hahn. I've wondered if somebody in MLB has hired him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Slightly above average defense with slightly below average pitching with historically bad offense equals 50 or so wins. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopek Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Even my phone doesn’t want to think about this guy. It keeps autocorrecting Grifol to Grudki(?) Anyway, fire Pedro. Hire Grudki. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 This team is a disgrace. The manager should have been fired during last season. The choice for GM was pathetic. The on field product is poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bauer and Puig could hardly make things any worse. Right now, we're so anonymous the Sox can't even be the Raiders or Washington Commanders/Redskins of ineptitude. Not even sure what dignity is remaining...just past history and a recognizable brand/image. Edited April 14 by caulfield12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s beside the point now. Losing 115 or whatever is a given. They need different leadership and direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie4Pres Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Why? Why does it matter who manages this team? There's not a single player that will be here when this team is somehow competitive again. Who gives a f*** who manages these losers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to see them oromote Jirscele and let him grow into the job. JR isn’t going to pay for a top manager. So let Jirschel manage. Let him make mistakes when it doesn’t matter. See if he becomes a good manager, instead of waiting until the team may be relevant and hiring a guy like Pedro who aces interviews but sucks when it’s time to do the job.

GreatScott82 Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Let’s not forget Pedro was the manager of last years circus 🎪 He was the man in charge of that locker room of dysfunction. Because Jerry wanted to save a few pennies, he gets to stay in charge this season? WOW. That’s dogcrap. Getz has already saved Jerry millions with his roster destruction. Fire his ass and let’s move forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire his ass and let’s move forward. I think it will ultimately hurt Getz if he doesn’t. By not firing him, he’s already communicating to the organization that results don’t matter. Not just losing, but performing poorly is “OK” now “in the big picture” way. That is why their culture has been in the tank for so long. Hahn and Williams justified SO MUCH LOSING, going through repeated tanks and rebuilds. Justifying losing for any reason—whether it’s to tank or save money, whatever it may be, is difficult to get back. The person who justifies it is usually the person who has to leave before winning matters to everyone again. To think a team conditioned to justify losing for someone for so long will just all of a sudden be able to win for that same person is nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
