Kyyle23 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I have to say that it does feel different this week. The old heads that all had Tony's back aren't able to defend what he has been doing, Heyman talked about replacing him on the score this morning and it usually takes a lot for him to say something of that nature. Bruce tried to calm it all down but it just came off as normal Bruce caping 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand That absolutely kicked it off, not very different from the Fire Garpax chants.

South Side Hit Men Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 If it's good enough for Joe Maddon, it's good enough for Tony LaRussa. Also want the Happy Ending Joe encountered for Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said it hurt him to say so because Tony is a friend but it is time. I'd rather have him out of the organization but I guess whatever it takes to get him out of the dugout. I also see that the Phillies have played great since replacing Girardi....it may be too late in that division but it should not be too late in the AL Central. Expand That would be even worse or more of the same. We all know Tony has a finger on the moves this organization makes and a direct line to Jerry’s ear. To give him a more clear role in those decisions would not make this team better, it would make it worse. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) Was busy this weekend and didn't follow much, but you would think in back-to-back extra inning games when your bullpen is thin, your closer might make an appearance. Weird. Edit: he pitched an inning Friday, didn't pitch Wednesday or Thursday, pitched Tuesday, and Monday no game, Edited June 13, 2022 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows who owns the team so you don't need to say Jerry. Sell the team ! Sell the team !! Sell the team !!!

Another round of back spasms seems like a very plausible conclusion - they wouldn't put him on the IL for that, and we've seen it already this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
