You dont blow the front office apart now. You see what they do during the deadline. You fire Robin and elevate Anderson for now. See what that does. You acquire players during the deadline. See if that helps. If none of that works then you fire the front office and begin the rebuild. But they should explore all those other avenues first.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 21, 2016 -> 03:50 PM) This isn't a situation or point in the season someone gets canned Sure it is. It's early. That's why it's good. They could give him June. But they could also risk being in a huge hole. It may not work. But it's the quickest way short of acquiring players to see if that'll wake anyone up.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 21, 2016 -> 03:45 PM) Yeah right, they'll have a scapegoat like the bullpen catcher. With that said, this is almost entirely on the players. This team has no prayer if Abreu is one of the worst players in baseball. He needs to be an all-star caliber player for this team to contend. They cant fire the team and Rick Hahn is probably feeling the heat. Axing Robin is a quick and easy way to see if that changes anything. It's still early. Give it a try. I think if they get swept this series that should be enough.

Some should be/is getting canned soon if they keep losing this way.

Ah great here comes the severe thunderstorm

QUOTE (StrykerSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) I know it worked, but why wasn't Frazier in for one of the utility guys? Is he hurt? Sick

They have to walk him *I guess not*

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:14 PM) C'mon Carlos, we can screw up two sac bunts in one game, can we? Yes, it would be nice to be a Braves fan because they had 14 consecutive playoff appearances, a brand-new suburban stadium funded by taxpayers is coming...the Shelby Miller steal of the decade trade, their minor league system is brimming with talent and the only real issue with the entire organization is figuring out what to do about Hector Olivera. Oh, and the #1 draft pick next June, because there's no way the Twins will finish with a worse record. Plus you get to cheer for Gordon Beckham, Tyler Flowers and AJ, lol. I liked the Shelby Miller deal quite a bit. But that's because they got Inciarte back in the trade who I value quite a bit. Guys like him dont grow on trees.

That was horrible defense my goodness

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:08 PM) Or that last week seems to be evening out with some of the early games the Sox won that were very lucky The team's in a rut...but today was some s*** managing. Bunting in most situations is just plain stupid. It's a free out. You take it as the opposing defense and say thank you.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:06 PM) Not sure what's going on here anymore. Lots of new posters I think people forget this isnt a 16 game season. But a good portion of it is what I said above. Some of these people would be "happier" as Atlanta Brave fans.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2016 -> 10:04 PM) Wow at least wait until they aren't in first to jump off the bandwagon Come on Fathom you know better...a good portion of the people on here would be happier in a forever rebuilding process. That way they can sulk for all eternity about what a pile of s*** their team is.

Ah the doom in gloom is back. Soxtalk is right back at home.

The point of getting Austin Jackson was he doesnt hurt you with runs scored. But he doesnt save any runs either. Eaton last year was like -15. Jackson was 0.

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:22 PM) Have you listened to Hawk? Those people Ok Hawk is one person...and who give a s*** what his evaluation is

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 08:21 PM) Austin Jackson has not been near the defensive player some made him out to be. That error was brutal. Uh...what did people make him out to be? He was pretty much dead average.

Great punch but should be a lengthy suspension

So the season is over right?

Lol what's with the zone now?

Good hit by Avi

I hate letting IMO the most overpaid baseball/useless baseball player beat you.

Bye!

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ May 9, 2016 -> 08:01 PM) Yeah, what did happen to Joey Gallo? What a fall Strikeouts. That was a big concern in the minors.

Rangers announcers always annoy me

Garcia hitting...I still cant believe it
