LaRussa is the Manager. Get over it.

Spoken like a true abuser.  Well done.  I guess victims of police brutality and those who have lost loved ones to drunk driving should just get over it too.  Please log off Soxtalk and leave the rest

You are probably in the wrong place if you are looking for an echo chamber.

To me, it’s more that there are plenty of threads discussing how awful the hire was for numerous reasons. There was no reason for the Tony issue to get forced into the thread.

Must be a slow day because were getting off topic in the wrong thread again. Lol ? 

Plenty of slow days ahead. And this would've been a good thread if the OP didn't drag his anti-LaRussa schtick into it. And into every other thread. We've run that subject into the ground and there are threads for it.

You have to wonder if this thread was about Mazara or just a guise to talk more shit about Larussa.

They're all locked so you can't post in them anymore.

Smugass jerry reinsdorf, who always draws a chorus of boos everywhere he goes and for very good reason, who knew about all of this before he made the hire, who stepped on his GM's toes and overruled a man who is -- whatever you think about Hahn, good or bad -- is definitely a much smarter baseball man than himself, who preaches about how hands-off he is only to be the exact opposite and actually run everything through his hands first regardless, who made a bucket-list hire instead of a baseball decision-hire, just wants all of this to go away.  When people stop talking about it, it will just "go away" because the beat writers will not want to jeopardize their jobs going on about it.

Fuck jerry reinsdorf and fuck his manager.  They're both fair game and always should be.

It was about Mazarra.

35-10 in favor of nontendering him.  Pretty convincing.

I am even in the "yes" group but I am also just fine with trying to replace him with a cheap trade like Calhoun, or bringing him back for less if we can, or depending on the cost, tendering him and then cutting him in ST if we have found a replacement.

No, It was about Mazara AND TLR.  There were 4 voting options.  The first two were legitimate.  The last two were stupid. The Mods should have locked the thread right away.

It’s going to go away because he’s the manager and nothing is going to change this. Sorry but the cancel culture won’t work on Jerry.  I can’t wait to see Tony bashing in every thread though :)

To be honest there are mods who love the anti-Russa stuff and don't care how often it appears and derails threads.

So the 2 major names that are in danger of being non-tendered are...Rodon and Nomar?

It makes sense.  They both underpreformed majorly last year, and their arb raises are WAY above their market value.  Giolito is a no brainer of a tender.  Reynaldo is still at a very small number, so no reason to not bring him back.
