Dominikk85 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 If you get a sign by the coach you have to follow it and yermin does seem to have a problem with discipline and authority (not just in this org) but I don't like TLR is discussing this publicly. Just say no comment in this we are handling this internally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yermin has a history of discipline issues that certainly pre-date his time in Chicago or TLR. In fact TLR let him off pretty easily when he showed up late for a game earlier this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Let's just summarize this for easy reading: - Yermin Mercedes hit a home run in the 9th inning - Tony LaRussa wanted him to keep his bat on his shoulder - As the home run landed, LaRussa was apologizing to the Twins for his player hitting a home run against a hated rival - Today, as the Sox prepare to win another game, Tony spent most of his time ripping his star rookie in the media, airing out all his grievances about sportsmanship and how to play the game the right way, and talking about spankings (?!?!) It's like we are living in bizarro world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer a behind doors chat about missing signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mqr Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Saying behind closed doors is one (very stupid) thing. Mouthing off to the media and calling your player clueless is unbelievable. would anybody fault to the team for having a full blown mutiny?

GermanSoxFan Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The funniest part is that Tony is never to be seen when his team gets screwed with bad calls, but once the holy unwritten rules of baseball are broken he is right there on the top step. Can‘t make this shit up. This man is a clown and I hope the TLR era is over soon. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GermanSoxFan Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The thing is: When even Mr Burns can win the city championship, the Sox should be fine if they just ignore Tony and let him ramble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 When Hall of Fame person, attorney Tony La Russa cares about the written laws concerning drunk driving, then maybe he can talk about unwritten rules that make baseball less fun. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
