Sox aren’t going after Rendon. He’s awesome, but pretty sure the infield and DH spot is set in their eyes.

They're going to have to find someone to play 2b next year. They won't spend the money on Rendon since he's too good but they're going to have to add someone, after where this season went with Yolmer and Rondon.

I heard the same interview.  Take a look at his arm climb and motion and compare it to last year.  Mental issues didnt all of a sudden change that to a short arm action.

I'm just reporting what Giolito said. I have no inside information on the situation.

Yep.  Giolito was interviewed during this very broadcast by Benetti and said he worked on changing his delivery all offseason.  And this is what he was crediting his success this year to most of all.

“Robin is a really good manager,” said team captain Paul Konerko, who was considered for the job before the Sox offered it to Ventura. “He’s good at this. But I also think that Robin is one of those guys who -- in the right way -- he knows baseball is not everything.  I respect that, because he can do this. He can probably do this for as long as he wants. But I don’t think he identifies who he is with baseball. So if he doesn’t want to do it, that’s fine.”

Players rarely say, this guy fucked me up.  I had to go outside and fix this with my own coach.  But thanks for helping me with my emotions.  I mean really do you think that lots of players on the Sox thought Robin was a really good manager.  Sometimes they just say things for the press.

A few more games like this and both Colome & Abreu will be on the trading block.

Expand  

Colome should have been on the block regardless of how things went.  Abreu too but I’m not sure what he can reasonably net in a trade.  Trade both and resign Abreu in the offseason if he will accept a reasonable short term (2-3) year deal.
