If Grifol is fired who should manager this s%*# Show the rest of the way?

Sizemore gets my vote. I’d also be fine with any of Butera, Santos or Jirschele. Say no to Montoyo.

Montoyo. Not that he deserves it, just make him take the ship down to the seabed. The year is lost and there’s no reason to saddle a real potential manager with this lost cause.

“Other” => Easter Bunny. 
Final Answer.

Let Hawk Harrelson be interim for grins. He'd at least tell it like it is on a daily basis.

Thome but he'd never do it. I think he would make an excellent manager.

Montoyo because he has prior experience as an MLB manager.

100% Sizemore.  Might as well and throw a total wild card in there and see what happens.

I don’t want to ruin someone like Sizemore.

I voted TLR. He should be forced to sit in that dugout for the final two months of this s%*# show since it all started when he was hired.

I want JR and TLR to co manage. 

"All right, Tony has fallen asleep and JR is taking over."

Or a series of turn back the clock weeks. If they are alive, have them manage a week. Let's make this a real s%*# show.

Actually I'm not convinced an inexperienced interim makes sense. I guess it might sell some tickets and make some fans believe JR is admitting a mistake and fixing it. But I question if the interim would be the person to lead a team that has an actual chance to succeed. 

I voted for Montoyo mainly because I don't want to see a guy like Sizemore or Santos be tainted by this team.  Those guys have the real chance of being managers some day.  Let Montoyo steer this sinking, floundering mess the rest of the way.

I voted Sizemore because that's who I would want, but it should probably be Montoyo because who gives a s%*# about him or his future? So let him see this awfulness until the end.

Jason benetti. With schriffen as his bench coach

Nah keep Grifol until the end. Hang this season on him.

Chris Getz through this season.

I’m think Sizemore should be the guy because the Sox need a Lefty, high obp, middle of the order guy with a high batting average

I can get on board with this

Agree but probably based on saving to pay 2 managers in the same half-season.

Whoever the interim would be is already being paid, so its not like it costs JR any extra money

Obviously it should be me.
