South Side Hit Men Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Not good losing Len Kasper on the radio side, though Conor McKnight has been a solid fill-in. Wondering if Len’s radio stint will last as long as Steve Stone’s (a single season) before transitioning to TV full time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I may be in the minority, but I found Len quite boring when he filled in for Steve on the telecasts. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, just leaving radio once again to fill in for Jason once again on TV for Jason’s olympics. If radio was Len’s long term priority, another broadcaster would fill in for Jason / Steve on their off days. This was all agreed to as part of the hiring process, and discussed publicly in terms of Len’s work across both mediums, and not surprising. Just like to keep him on radio, at least for a few seasons, before he takes over permanently for Stone or Benetti. Radio has been a revolving chair, with Andy Masur taking over for Farmer for the 60 game season last year, and now Len bouncing in and out of the booth this season to fill in for both over at least a dozen games.

That is because you had Len and Jason doing the game and that was two play by play guys. The normal booth is to have a play by play guy and the baseball expert/color analyst. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you meant and agreed with you. I should have started my post with I was bored too. Regardless of how talented Jason and Len are, they are not a match together.

MikeKreevich Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I am not a big fan of Benetti. That said, I wish they would call Hawk during games sometime and spend an inning getting his thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I am a fan of Benetti. But it would be fun to have Hawk in the booth a couple times a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
