The know it all (in his mind only) Bernstein on the Score and others didn't get the manager they wanted so they want to disparage the Hall of Fame and three time winning World Series manager. Have you been watching the games? This White Sox lineup is 28 out of 30 teams in runs scored. Expand So Tony gets a back to back playoff team with a top flight offense, defense, and pitching staff, and when all of that self-destructs the manager isn't responsible for it. This is circular enough to establish its own orbit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is circular enough to establish its own orbit. Expand The Sox at no point have been a top flight offense or defense during and after the rebuild. It was assumed the offense was going to bang with the best of the teams, but we're finding out we very overrated our talent there . The defense was always going to struggle . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick Mercedes Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 If Ricky was still managing, with the LaRussa achievement with this team, he would have been fired weeks ago. Or it would be the leading topic on sports talk radio every day until he was fired. Instead, we might fire Tony’s hitting coach. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
