There will be extra outs, mega wild pitches, and other miscues, not to mention no experience game calling. If he appeared to have any catching defensive ability, that I'd agree, but it's hard to see any at least at this stage. A voice of reason....I rarely listen to those, but you make a good point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is the worst situation. The absolute worst. I went through the terrible years of 68, 69 and 70 plus of course the rebuild years but I’ve seen things this year by this team that I’ve never seen before, they play a game that I’m not familiar with. With an off day tomorrow it will be a good time to start retooling, first with the firing of Hahn, let KW take over for the rest of the year. The next step is to fire Grifol, the man doesn’t have a clue. I would really like to see AJ become the new manager. The guy is a winner and as a former catcher knows the game. It will be up to KW to make the trades that have to be made but the new GM whoever it may be is going to have monumental job in cleaning up this mess both at the Major and Minor League levels. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wonder if they actually look at videos of all the pitches they swing at out of the zone, the season is 4 months old and it’s the same thing game after game, how many Golden Sombreros have there been especially from Robert and Burger, these guys aren’t trying to improve, just get in the box without a plan and swing at just about every pitch and get lucky and hit one out of the park once in awhile.

Go to hell, Rick Not Graveman?????? Ship him out for a bag of balls> Today's loss, is 100% on him. Really? You can't as the closer get three outs before giving up three runs? It's just amazing how bad our bullpen has been this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team has a terrible pitching staff, awful depth and a lineup with only one great hitter, maybe 2 other above average hitters and a number of guys who either suck defensively or are playing out of position or both. Grifol has been bad but the issues we are seeing really are because of the front office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah...if Harold is right and KW will take over next year then might as well let him make the trades in the next week and just go from there. Tomorrow is a really good time to get some housecleaning done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCsoxfan Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) There’s a losers mentality in this organization. This includes Rick, Kenny, Tim, Eloy, Yoan, Yaz, Gavin, Bummer, and more. No accountability, no drive to make things better, no desire to beat the other side on a given day. The worst part is nobody is even angry when they lose. They just take it and wait for the next butt kicking. Edited July 24, 2023 by NCsoxfan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was a woman and another who posted a lot who has now not posted in a long time. They were very rude in their insistence that this was incorrect. Wonder if they still believe this.
