He has to say something. I wouldn't worry about it.

Some here refuse to accept that only 30 of these jobs exist.

I'm glad to see a new manager hired in time to have input into the FA process.

I hope he is being given great latitude in picking his coaching staff.

Venable would get my vote. I would be fine with Sizemore as well. I'm partial to those guys who played in the majors. They have more creditability with the players IMO.

There are more good people than good jobs. I think our odds are good if we go outside the organization.

Yes it would be very WS. However, it shows Grady has a love of the game that I admire. -

That wouldn't bother me. Players played up to their abilities and that's all any manager can do. -
To be fair...2 weeks ago none of us would have thought it could be that strong.

I like Sizemore a lot. At least he stays awake for the games.

Yep...Aces don't grow on trees.

Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
poppysox replied to Paulie4Pres's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I feel 77 games under .500 seems hard to come back from. Maybe JR has a plan he could share with us. -
Grady has the boys playing with renewed energy. They have played entertaining baseball in many of his games.

Sox planning more playing time for Vargas/Fletcher

It's obvious that the players are playing with renewed energy and the games have been "watchable." I believe Sizemore has creditability with the players and that goes a long way.
