Not actually watching....did he get benched for not hustling? That's a thing now??

Yes, he hit it weakly. Looked like he thought it fouled off to the first base side. Unfortunately, the first baseman caught it in fair territory. Colas was on first anyway. Didn’t matter.

Maybe see Patino next inning.

And he got benched for that?

Thanks. That sounds crazy.

Started game thread to be helpful to get to better draft pick ?

I think it's a decent chance that Pedro gets worse instead of better at his job. The curse of wearing so many hats I guess.

Completely agree. 

90 miles to the north is MLB. Go Brewers!

He also screwed up a tag again when TA’s perfect throw had the runner out but Lee couldn’t hold on to the ball with a 1 hand tag.  Try 2 hands next time.

The Sox are going to lose 95 next year. Hate to break it to JR. 

I just don’t see how he believes this team can compete next year. The farm is barren and he’ll never get a prime free agent to sign here. The only players who will sign up to be a part of this mess are players who are looking for one last contract before they’re done.

He’s not a major leaguer

We have quite a few of those.

Patino fitting right in...two hits and two walks.

 

Might as well announce Clevinger will be back for 2024 tonight after the game and bury it with all the other bad news.

One thing these last two years are providing Sox fans is much quicker awareness of what is and isn't a legit major league player.

Many are now undoubtedly qualified to work under Getz.

9-0? Hope the fans are booing. Who in their right minds would go to a Det-Chi game at this stage of the season?

Fireworks were last night ?

I guess the Chris Getz hiring isn't a motivational tool. This is a 100-loss team whether they lose 100 or not. Just make sure that those anti-Reinsdorf banners get taken down. That is a priority. 

What's his face in the TV booth talked about a good crowd. Is he delusional or does he think we're stupid? Oh, Stoney. Can you shut up? Just shut up?

Fire everyone

Cubs about to blow another one. So that’s good.

Oh, I got nothin then.

Just checked the score. It's a good thing Pedro's job is safe. He's truly changing the culture and getting the best out of everyone. 

Two blown saves in a row for the Cubs.
