Paulie4Pres Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Lol. The White Sox apparently have a player on the roster that has sleep issues, and their training staff encouraged him to sleep in the clubhouse? This s%*# is just insane. Like, if you have a professional athlete with that issue, address the fucking issue so he can sleep at night. Because he's certainly not operating at 100% if his issues are THAT bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The all-star break starts when it starts for everyone. He made a comment in the interview that "the only thing I'm thinking about a day before the break is my lake house and spending time with my family, since I haven't spent enough time with them". What??? I wrote that before seeing the interview. I was thinking issues like physical therapy? Family issue? Team doctor visit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it's very rare for dirty laundry to be aired in the MLB. When it is, it's usually just a small piece of the puzzle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many would wonder if that is the case with this organization. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kids Can Play Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 19 minutes ago, Chick Mercedes said: So he thinks he addressed some attitude problems at the trade deadline? WtF is he talking about? WTF is right! Is this POS Hahn suggesting Burger and Giolito were attitude problems. I sure hope he wasn't and maybe it was Middleton, Lynn or Kelly, My god, he is so full of BS with the hints and BS implications without specifics. Hahn just keeps showing us another higher level of incompetency of not only being horrible GM, but now showing us his lack of integrity with his delusional thinking, that he can con the fans and media that this Sox team chemistry and culture is just hunky dory. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is saying the clubhouse needs a vocal leader who will speak up and lead the team. Fans cannot criticize the man for speaking up against bullshit like that but in the next breath complain that no one in the locker room is speaking up or taking control of the club house. Good on Tim for calling bullshit what it is. Not saying it is wrong for TA to say something but don't think a smartass comment in front of other teammates is the approach a good leader takes. It's not surprising that type of comment wasn't received well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not surprising that type of comment wasn't received well. A veteran player publicly approaches management to ask to leave early, when the Sox still have a game to play, and he's the only backup... They tell him no, and he complains. In the open clubhouse. In front of teammates. He SHOULD be called out on it. It's ridiculous, and it shows how fucking rotten this organization is. The fact that he slapped TA and there were NO REPURCUSSIONS shows how fucked up the culture here is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
