I'll believe it when I see it though. Losing 8 straight games is totally worth it to fire TLR? No it's not. In this scenario, who replaces Tony and saves the Sox?

Have to assume he had some minor set back as it sounded pretty certain yeseterday he'd be in there today. Need him back in the lineup. Unless they just don't want him playing in the cold yet, its hard not to wonder if something isn't right yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't they also say yesterday he was still having some discomfort? Someone in the game thread did say that they were worried they'd push him too hard by having him in today based on their description, IIRC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Promote jirschele to McEwing's job, and play out the season and do a real managerial search in the offseason. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Hahn and TLR said yesterday that he'd play today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that he won't be fired regardless, because Reinsdorf won't allow it. 3 minutes ago, KrankinSox said: LOL The delusion is real.

If he gets fired after 6-22, then we'd be better off in 2023 because he is gone. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCCWS Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 It is too cold for TLR to function. Pray for snow squalls. This is really more like the Charlotte lineup with a ML starter. Cease deserves a bonus if he wins w this contingent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcq Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I was not expecting much this year but they have lowered the bar even further. How low will they go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) Just slather on the good old Icy Hot or Tiger Balm on shoulders,elbows, knees ,calves, thighs, and back. That'll keep you warm and muscles relaxed. Will also make for a lovely smelling training room , club house and dugout ! Probably will help avoid injuries too. I'd have a metric ton of that stuff around and make sure the guys used it in the cold always. Edited April 27, 2022 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) Feels like the good ol 2001 White Sox with David Wells, Frank Thomas out and Jose Canseco. Fought back from 14-29 all the way to .500ish by mid summer and ended up at 83-79. Edited April 27, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
