CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Why leave Urena in to start the 7th ? Take the ball after 6 and say fine job Jose ! Petey Grifol blows ! So what if the relievers suck .Half them won't be here next year. Urena could be . SO now instead of giving up 2 runs in 6 innings Urena has now given up 6 runs in 6.1 inning . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 15, 2023 Author Share Posted September 15, 2023 (edited) And the Vaughn 2 R HR is why these days with a guy you just picked up and gave u 6 credible innings is why you take the ball out of his hands and pat him om the ass and say good job. Might have actually gave them a game. Edited September 15, 2023 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're trying to figure out how to get starting pitching. Urena gave you 6 strong. Why leave him in? All you can do at that point is destroy what he accomplished in 6 and let him take the ball in another 5 days with some confidence. Suck is here to stay but do you really think some of these AAA/AAAA BP arms are going to be around ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro might be one of the few Sox baseball operations employees less qualified for his particular job than Chris Getz is. While an 100 plus loss season will be cromulent this season, if no significant personnel / organizational changes are made, I really hope they lose 120 plus games each future season until jerry is no longer owner. It's his mess, let him wallow in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANd yet he refuses to do anything with that stance. I think he's proud of the fact he can ground a ball into right field when people are on base rather than hitting HR's. He's doing just what these hitting coaches are trying to make everyone do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox need to get more athletic players instead of station to station hitters with no speed. The team needs a 100% overhaul and that might include Robert if he can bring enough in trade value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grinder Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Loss number 91 in the books. I believe 16 to go. 107 still possible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Rooting hard for 62-100... Hard to imagine the Twins losing any of these games.

Donny Lucy's Avocado Farm Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Did the Twins clinch yet? When they do I hope its at GRate. I hope they'll form a big circle around homeplate and collectively take a big dump together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Sox already playing like it's the very last game of the season. Wouldn't be shocked if Colas goes AWOL in Charlotte as well. A friend of mine asked yesterday (As he saw me celebrating another loss to KC), "Do you really want them losing 100 games, isn't that embarrassing?" I replied, " Hell yeah! Never have I wanted my Sox to lose more than right now and draw to themselves the same embarrassment they have caused to us fans. I want all those players and the Dildo Manager to carry that 100 loss season as part of their careers. Fucking Losers. 🤬 And by the way, this team has flat out quit on the Dildo Manager. They never quit on Renteria, never quit on LaRussa, never quit on Cairo. But yet this ass clown is guaranteed a job next season?

This team has flat out quit and I cannot think of 1 thing he is good at. Almost impossible to fathom at the start of a year a situation where KW and Hahn would both be gone...but the result with Getz and Grifol returning is pretty much DAMPENING spirits of the majority of the fanbase. Still have two weeks left after this and the interest level is pretty much at an all time low except for going for the 100 loss mark lowlight. In fact, it's pretty hard to identify more than a couple of posters who adamantly argued for either of those two guys as GM or 2024 field manager. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine there's a lower paid GM or field manager in the entire sport...maybe the A's or Pirates. For example, TB Rays are much smarter than that, surely they invest more resources in their front office and constantly replacing all the poached talent.
