He's truly changing the culture and getting the best out of everyone. This team quit after the 10 game losing streak back in April. Grifol lost the team at that point. Getz could talk to me until I’m blue in the face and tell me that Grifol is the right guy to manage the Sox and he will get one hell of a fight from me and probably 99% of Sox fans. The man doesn’t have a clue and has no business managing a MLB team. Edited September 3, 2023 by The Mighty Mite 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 5 games, the Sox minor leaguers have given up 6R 5ER. That's 4 fewer than the MLB team gave up in 1 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not Grifol fault…he’s a first year manager. Give him a few seasons to figure this s%*# out. If we’re still losing a 100 games a season come 2025, then maybe you let him go. Until then everybody should get wayyyyyyyyyyy off his back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a symptom of the disease. I don't give a s%*# that he's a first year manager. He was hired to manage a supposed CONTENDER. I also don't give a s%*# that he might figure it out in a few seasons. It's just more prototypical White Sox BULLSHIT. He never should have been hired. You also don't need a few seasons to see he has no leadership ability, and none of the players respect him. NOTHING has changed for the positive with this team since he was hired. He has only gotten worse. I'm glad Detroit is embarrassing them. They deserve it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been telling the players exactly what they should be doing…it’s not his fault they don’t listen. Once we trade for Salvy, Pedro will have his enforcer in the clubhouse and players won’t have a choice but listen or risk a verbal beat-down from Salvy. Just need to be a bit more patient here brother. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Establishing the culture and work ethic. Putting players in the best position to succeed. I call bullshit. He's a terrible manager, and I bet he's out of managing in the MLB as soon as he's fired by the Sox. Edit: Asking a White Sox fan to "be a bit more patient" is fucking hilarious. We have been patient with this disgraceful organization for almost 20 years. They can shove patience up their ass.

Pedro is the biggest embarrassment of the season and that’s really saying something. Getz retaining him is a major red flag to his credibility. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if true that also speaks to him taking a job he’s not qualified for knowing his power is limited at best and his hands will be tied on most things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
