Hopefully some of these guys tell Jerry what he doesn't want to hear. That his team is pathetic, has a mediocre at best minor league system and it's probably going to take at least five years to win. To tell him their trading pieces of Robert and Crochet will NOT bring a haul and the absence of Crochet will make the pitching staff even worse. But we have to trade him to 'try' to get 3-4 guys who are either MLB ready or close to it. Telling Jerry that Vaughn and Sheets are our best two sluggers on paper but they are not good. And that Fletcher and all those guys like Colas are not good either. And of course that Beni would not start for any other team. He also cannot hit. Jerry ... give me five years is the message a smart manager would give to JR. Benintendi and Robert 661 and 660 ops...all u need to know. Pham and DeBong the only two over 700 while Sox this year. Beckham career 667 Getz a hefty 616 Edited September 13, 20241 yr by caulfield12

September 17, 20241 yr "Skip Schumaker's contract is set to expire at the end of this season, and he is leaving the Miami Marlins. Schumaker's reputation has been enhanced over his two years with the Marlins, and there is a lot of industry speculation that he might prefer to oversee a West Coast team in his next managerial gig. But he doesn't have the career longevity of someone like Bruce Bochy, A.J. Hinch or Cora, so his name could pop up with any opening that develops." espn.com

What a feel good story it will be. We won't even notice a third straight 100 loss season. see who's available from the Royals, that will be the guy

Especially after winning two in Oakland and almost two at California, you can almost hear them saying “Grady has them ready to play and grind it out each and every day.”

I totally expect this to happen once Schumaker runs away from this shitshow like a house on fire.
