Sure, but these qualities would still describe a “bridge manager” moreso than signing an established manager like AJ Hinch when the Sox have finally built a team that they expect to win.

I’m not quite sure what you mean. None of the rumored remaining candidates are highly lauded managers. I believe Schumaker is the only one that has been an MLB manager.

Not really too disappointing when you realize that this will likely just be the bridge manager to when the Sox are able to get back to being a .500 team. And if they somehow strike gold with a competent manager, they can always try to extend him.

While the free OTA option is nice, not having streaming options in addition is a whiff. I won’t have a problem watching Sox games because I get MLB.TV for free every year through T-Mobile and I am tech savvy enough to know how to get around the local blackout with a VPN. But not everyone wants to pay for MLB.TV or knows how to use a VPN and just wants an easy and reliable streaming solution like NBC Sports Chicago provided. Should people bust this out as their portable solution for watching Sox/Bulls/Hawks games in the Chicagoland area? Hopefully the slightly bent antenna will still get a good signal…

MLB.TV started playing the Sox postgame last year.

Well, Justin Fields has lost his starting job for sure after that game by Russell Wilson. So Wilson either needs to perform poorly or miss time for Fields to be the starter again so the Bears get a 4th round pick for the Fields trade rather than a 6th.

They look amazing against the lesser teams, but their three losses against better teams (Marist, St. Rita, Loyola) were only by one score. They should beat St. Ignatius on Friday night and then anything can happen.

People said it sucked? I see people saying it was fluky, which it was. It was not a team built to win for years, like a dynasty team.

What could be better than a new stadium that makes you tons of money that you don’t have to pay for? Jerry is a delusional fucking scumbag.

Kenny and Hahn were bad but they were both better than clueless Chris Getz.

Do you live near the ballpark?

It was a dump of money. Big deal. He saved Jerry some money that he won’t spend later. Golf claps for Getz!

Great post, because he literally did. He chose Dominic Fletcher over Jake McCarthy, based on his Assistant GM Josh Barfield’s recommendation. He then chose Miguel Vargas over Luke Keaschall, based on the recommendation of Assistant Hitting Coach Mike Tosar whom he fired a week after the trade. One couldn’t fail harder than Getz did with his trades, even if you intentionally wanted to sabotage the team.

Well, he actually did, so your post can’t even be refuted. 🤣

No, I’m not. Getz is terrible at everything, minors and majors.

2005 was fluky lucky in which everything went right. The 2006 offense was crazy good and the team should have been better than the 2005 team, but the pitching, both the starters and bullpen, completely went into the shitter.

Obviously you are being sarcastic but Soroka is likely gone. Vargas is trash. Take a deeper look at Shuster’s metrics. He was lucky to have a 4.30 ERA considering he doesn’t strike many guys out and walks a bunch of guys when he isn’t giving up hits. Getz has to be one of the worst GM’s in baseball currently. The team would have been better if you negated all of his moves and just made no moves.

I don’t think there is such a guy available. I do remember everyone being excited about Hinch but stupid Jerry blew that up and hired his relic of a best friend instead.

Brother Rice @ St. Laurence

In hindsight, I presume you won the discussion. 🤣

My guess is that you could probably send an email to his loyal minions, Scott Reifert and Brooks Boyer. [email protected] [email protected]

Horrifying thought.

Your dad also got busted by the police getting a hummer from a transgender prostitute and plead no contest. 🤦‍♂️

We all agree, but Jerry will always ensure that the Cubs are more popular and that the Sox will always be second class. He needs to go…

Gotta have that epic rookie QB matchup. Best of the rookies.
