I thought Ventura and Renteria were bad, but they look like geniuses in comparison to Pedro. I think Renteria was a much better manager. Ventura...idk...honestly I think he is on par with Grifol lol.

April 1, 20242 yr Going 61-101 with this years team may have been acceptable. Having that record with last years team was not. And losing 120+ games this year with this crappy roster is still not. He's the worst manager in the history of MLB and its not questionable.

Again, this man was ready willing and able to be hired by the Royals who knew everything they needed to know about Pedro. The Royals passed on him. Let's face facts. This team and everything about it has no bright spots now except Robert (til he likely gets hurt again) and maybe Montgomery. Grifol is not good.

Yes, I'll quote the full passage for clarity. https://chicago.suntimes.com/2020/4/27/21238781/bulls-last-dance-doug-collins-jerry-krause Quote However, speculation grew that Collins’ release was due primarily to matters unrelated to basketball, and that Bulls assistant Phil Jackson was the No. 1 candidate to become the new head coach. While most players said they were shocked by Collins’ demise, two who requested anonymity said they had been aware of the pending firing for days. “It was something (Collins) did that greatly upset the top man (Reinsdorf) and not Jerry Krause,” one player said. “It’s unfortunate that Krause will come out of this looking like the bad guy when he was simply the bearer of the bad news. “Maybe Krause and Collins did not like each other that much. But it wasn’t Krause’s decision to fire Collins.”
April 1, 20242 yr Jesse Rogers was just saying on Carm & Jurk that Pedro Grifol does not have respect by those around Baseball outside of the Sox walls. Yikes.

Hundred loss seasons should never be acceptable. and trust the white Sox to be the one fucking team to f*** up so much that when they finally lost over 100 they can’t even get a goddamn lottery pick in the draft for it

April 1, 20242 yr 1 hour ago, Quin said: Well it just seems like he was hired to be the Sox’ Eberflus, holding the bag for a real manager that comes along to coach the real roster. If ever there is such a thing on the SS. The Grifol era may be here for awhile. Ron isn’t completely off his meds. Why would the Sox ever fire a guy hired to take all the incoming.

I think Grifol should under these words after all 10-15 wins this season. As bad as he is, every win should be a surprise and an embarrassment to whomever we beat.
April 1, 20242 yr Grifol will be gone soon. If the sox are winless in April, he will be fired in May. Jerry told us there was no time to waste.

April 2, 20242 yr I just don't understand how someone likes him gets a manager job. There are so many more options
