I take ANYTHING that doofus says with a big grain of salt. Although getting him would be a God send. 

Former Sox organization ties.  Would be amazing if true.

Well, that's eight straight losses now.

Two more for another double-digit losing streak

And in case you are wondering, in the 124 years of the franchise they have NEVER had a season where they had two or more losing streaks of at least 10 games.

It's never happened before.

What I will never understand is why they targeted so many guys in the offseason with mediocre stuff as bullpen pieces.  By the way, Bailey Horn looks good for the Red Sox and Cousins has been good for the Yankees.  Getz really has the magic touch.

Because guys with better stuff cost more. Basically every acquisition was a project including Fedde. If anyone else truly thought Fedde would be any good he wouldn't have signed with the Sox.

With all these blown saves, would they be better off moving Crochet back to the pen?  They could probably prevent losing 120 games that way.

You can't have Crochet warming up potentially multiple times like relief pitchers sometimes do before entering a game, especially with this clown manager.  

These guys really don’t disappoint. I started following as soon as it was going into the bottom of the 9th. You just know they will blow it.

Pure sarcasm…making him a starter is just about only good decision they’ve made in years

They can.

If JR is calling the shots yes.

Getz can always pretend teams wouldn't bite. But if he's fired you never know if he pissed JR off . You want Crochet then eat Beni's remaining salary and give us a DSL SS .

You know why.  I think both will be gone soon.

I really don’t think Pedro makes it through the rest of the season. I don’t even know if he makes it to August at this point.

People have been predicting he'd be fired since last season. They'll make trades with Grifols input then fire him.

It's the RH /KW trick.

If there was any truth to Francona that would be amazing. That is a legit great baseball mind.

Personal opinion is Francona is done.

Game day looked like he tried to walk him before giving up a hit on the only ball in the strike zone.

I hope @Chicago White Soxis right and they can trade his ass.

It would also help if the Sox would score more runs.  Their inability to move the runner from second to third with no outs has left many runs on the table.

The guy who never had a losing season in Cleveland is going to come here and hang 40+ more losses on his record lol

bruce is hard to listen to on the score, you can tell when he is making stuff up on the spot 

Francona owes JR absolutely nothing.

He screwed him over and made his path to the majors even longer.

It was a James Fox tweet. I’m on my phone so I’m not good with linking. You could just search on X Francona White Sox.

What did Bruce's X equal in this equation, may I ask?

Watch Grifol use Kopech next to try and close again because he looked so tough in the 7th yesterday.  And then watch it blow up in his face
