What?

Injuries have really hurt this team's chances.

If there was ever a professional sports team that needed an absolute house cleaning, its this one.

No blame to the guys who put this team together? Ok.

An organizational enema is what I call it. Queue @hi8is

This is a good time to repeat:

We are the dumbest franchise in baseball.

I blame the guy(s) who put the roster together more.

Not to defend this boob, it sounds like this wasn't offered as serious analysis but as something motivational for the players (whether it would motivate, IDK). Sort of a rah rah buckle up and keep your name out of the history books kind of thing

Fire him FAST.

The roster is bad, but I didn't think it was the worst team of all time bad. He has never pushed the right button in the two years he has been here.

I'm not saying this can't be true because Pedro is an Idiot BUT I do not trust anything Riordan says.  He likes to hear himself.  

I plan on pouring myself 2 or 3 fingers of fine scotch the evening this assclown is fired.  What an unbelievable leader of men, I can't imagine why the majority of the organization seems to be going through the motions. 

Grifol is a horrible manager who should have never been hired but he really was dealt a shitty hand this year with basically a AAAA team if that.

I mean, i hate Pedro as much as the next guy.  He should have been fired last season.  But he's not completely wrong here.  And at this point, its going to be mostly a new clubhouse anyway.

Maybe in all of the 4 majors.

I probably would have used "colonic irrigation" but I get your point.

We just need a Kelly Leak to turn it all around.

How are we letting this weirdo get away with a clearly fake quote again?

(paraphrasing) ?

 

 

 

Riordan is as big a piece of s%*# as Grifol, so grain of salt here. But nobody should be surprised that Pedro would say something this ignorant and stupid. I will take the smallest amount of pleasure in the fact that in Baseball history, Pedro Grifol will go down as one of the worst managers of all time.

Are you talking about Riordan?  The dude is a drama queen

f*** Riordan. And the Sox.

This team could have easily won 30 games by now with the right manager. Great players, even very good players, can overcome bad coaching. Guys lucky to be on a MLB roster need great coaching to stay barely on a MLB roster. 

Here's the saddest part, most of the players are playing to their potential. 

Next step? College managing? Bench coach for an old buddy? 

Wouldn’t be a shock because the Sox look less focused than ever, as if they’re losing on purpose to piss their manager off
