Tony

Yikes, haven't seen a beat down like this in a while. Credit where credit is due @Look at Ray Ray Run

Except some of us actually watch the games and understand what we’re seeing, and know the mistakes that are being made. Like some of the mistakes Tony has admitted postgame! But feel free to keep living on what LaRussa did in 1989 to guide your thoughts on the type of manager he is in 2021. You’re trolling just to troll at this point. You have no argument other than “People are being mean to LaRussa, I need to defend him!” ?

It’s hilarious that’s the best the LaRussa stans can do. They spend more time complaining about posters who are picking on LaRussa than the posters who are actually calling out LaRussa. And when you challenge them on “Why do you like LaRussa, what has he done well?” The answer is “I mean, I can’t really point to anything specific, but if this team wins, he’ll have done great. If they lose in the playoffs, I hope he’s gone.” Just a ringing endorsement for someone they spend hours a day defending. And again...I’ll point out just because: 2021: 47 games...28 -19 2020: 47 games...31-16

Grandal batting 2nd...I like it TLR!

Agree here totally.

Does Jace get called up when he's ready? Replace Marshall?

It's absolutely brutal. And I do feel bad for the mail carriers, it's not their fault. But it makes me not want to buy anything that is going to be delivered by USPS. I just don't want to deal with the headache.

Waiting on an Ebay package. Tracking stopped updating about 3 days ago and stuck on "Out for delivery." I called my post office. I asked if I could pick it up at the post office. They said my carrier will be in late today, but he has over 400 packages backlogged that still need to be sorted, so even I went to the post office, they don’t have anyone to look for my package, I just have to wait. Meanwhile I can track basically by the minute where my Amazon package is.........I hate USPS.

Correct, it's a basic lack of understanding. It doesn't matter if he doesn't care...as another poster brought up, it's on the front page of Reddit right now. This after last week where Tony LaRussa and the Sox were the lead story on PTI, Barstool, Dan Patrick, Rich Eisen, SportsCenter, etc. It's attention that is not needed, and so easily avoidable, but they seemingly look for ways to trip over themselves. It's almost impressive. But some see fit to continuing carrying water.......oh well life goes on.

5th time in a row Collins is catching for Rodon

Fantastic showing from Liam

They lose this, it's one of those games where the season can come of the rails.

Correct. West missed an obvious Strike 3 call but Crochet was terrible that inning. That belongs to him. And TLR didn't do anything wrong this inning, this is clear case of a player simply not executing.

How heavy have the water pails gotten on your shoulders?

Who said I was talking about you? I didn't respond to you. This is my point. The lengths you stans will go to protect LaRussa's HONOR! is quite remarkable.

I find it "odd" that when I simply post a tweet of a LaRussa comment that I, along with others have taken objection over.....the LaRussa "defenders" are the ones that seem more outraged. "Good God Twitter will be the death of me?" Really, bro? Did my comment really trigger you that much? I simply pointed out something that seemed to fit a certain pattern by LaRussa, and I clearly am not the only one that thinks so. I don't think the tweet is going to cause me death, but I'm also not a crazy person, so who knows.

I'm sure this is going to get all the LaRussa stans in a tizzy, but based on his "clueless" comments about Mercedes, this is 100% a shot at certain players currently on the Sox roster.......

What a beast

Lance Lynn has been fairly fantastic this season

Here is my issue with Grandal at the moment. Yes, the OBP is great. But he also has 12 hits and it's May 24. With Eloy and Robert out........the Sox need run producers and Grandal was brought in to drive in runs. They didn't pay him just for his defense. I'm glad he's getting on base, getting on base leads to runs....but given the Sox current lineup, they need someone to drive those runners in, and right now Yaz isn't getting that done.

Yeah, I think this is just SOP at this point. Normal media scrum. Some interesting things could come out of it, but I don't expect Rick to be announcing news like he did with Eloy and Robert.

Where did they “announce” this? Because to DA’s point, this is very standard and common place.
