  2. That's exactly my point. The Sox coaches and Management took a "kid" who last started one game for his college team, with no minor league experience and put him on a playoff roster. And,oh by the way can you pick-up what's left after we pulled our other rookie pitcher in the first inning of a deciding game 3 do or die. Yes, the coaches didn't have much of a choice with the playoff roster THEY and MANAGEMENT chose. Quite simply, upper Management didn't care enough because they weren't getting fans in the stands or extra money in their pockets.. Follow the money and Jerry dries up real fast. Jerry doesn't want to really win, sure if it happens it's nice and we get to hear him talk about Brooklyn again, but what he really wants is for us to keep coming just enough so he doesn' t have to pay extra lease money to the State. It's all about the money with Jerry, he can take his love of the game and his Brooklyn Dodgers and SELL THE TEAM!
  3. I thought it was a consensus with the coaches involved in the decision. Even if they weren't involved they are the ones who put him in the games and rode him like a mule. I also fault Hahn for not getting a starting pitcher at the trade deadline knowing that we only had 2 pitchers with experience. To me the coaches decision to go with so many rookies on the playoff roster and in a deciding game 3 was inexcusable when they could have chose other options. Call me crazy but I would have chosen Ross Detwiler to make the playoff roster instead of Garrett. I also wouldn't have used Dylan Cease the day before and started him in game 3 if I had no other pitchers with MLB experience. If I had a brain cramp and chose Dunning instead Cease to start a game 3, I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T HAVE HAD A RELIEVER WARMING UP AFTER 15 PITCHES IN THE FIRST INNING!
  4. And this statement is why we needed to get rid of Ricky and Cooper......“I was kind of sore just like leading up to the game,” Crochet said. “I felt like I just hadn’t been recovering well because I felt like I was thrown into the mix pretty quick and tried not to really speak out of turn. I didn’t want to feel like they were going to have somebody else do my job. So that was a little selfish on my part, not really speaking up a little bit more.
  5. Let's say Tony were to resign since Jerry won't fire him without looking like a bigger idiot than he already does. My guess is Jerry would be Jerry and go cheap and make Joe McEwing the manager. Gotta feel for Rick Hahn.
  6. I believe you can say on top of being a drunk, he's an angry drunk and a not very sincere one who let it happen again.
  7. Thank you....Sullivan constantly moans about Reinsdorf and the Sox
  8. He looked hung over to me at the press conference announcing him as our Manager.
  9. Don't kid yourself ......getting money in advance is better then waiting for it to trickle in game by game.
  10. I emailed my rep earlier today with this question. How do I go about canceling my season ticket order? The news that the Sox knew of LaRussa's DUI is disturbing to me. response I appreciate your email as we do care about the opinions/feedback from our loyal fans like you. I will forward your email over to my manager for him to then forward on to the higher ups. We are definitely not taking anything lightly as it is a serious matter. Hopefully I will get a response to share with you soon. We do appreciate you sticking with us right now! 2021 will be an exciting year, we don’t want you to miss out. I hope you reconsider not leaving us.
  11. Your dreaming, the Chicago media and fans love controversy.
  12. Funny how Tony wants his team to be sincere about bat flips when Tony isn't sincere about the danger of driving drunk.
  13. This means no fear, cavalier, renegade and steering clear A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline It's the end of the world as we know it
  14. I inquired about cancelling my season tickets this morning and more should do the same. Send a message where it will hurt Jerry $$$$.
  15. I agree, after rebuilding this team from the ground-up Hahn earned the right to pick his own Manager.
  16. 1. I would have started Cease and not used him the day before and followed him up with Dunning if ineffective. 2. I would have saved Crochet for the middle innings or with 2 out in an inning and would not have brought 2 rookies in to start a game 3 clincher. 3. Starting 2 rookies in a high leverage situation not to mention a game 3 clincher is ridiculous planning on the Manager and the Management team. 4. Warming up pitchers in the first inning is most certainly a distraction to the starter even if I'm not in his head, and don't take this personal, but I care more about what Frank Thomas has to say than you. Put some Frank's sauce on that!
  17. This could be the Sox way of clearing the way for Hinch by saying Tony didn't want the job. Let's hope not, and the Sox surprise us with Bruce Bochy who's the man to lead us to multiple championships.
  18. Not sure it would all be positive, but it would certainly bring attention to the Sox. Not sure where I stand on this because he cheated...actually he cheated that should be enough that nobody should hire him....but someone will, and eventually win it all.
