But as I wrote I don't think he understands yet calling MLB as opposed to G-League, Slamball or NBA Summer League. Different type athletes, different skill sets, different rhythms to the sport and most importantly a totally different audience. He's not going anywhere short of new ownership so I hope next year is better, he's difficult to listen to. Not sure watching the team is any better.

He’s doing NBA Summer League games over MLB games? Was he already committed to these when hired? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the Sox were upset that Benetti wanted to do games outside of White Sox baseball but now have no problem with Schriffen doing the very same thing? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just so funny how you can so quickly and easily spot the BS with this team, and they don’t even attempt to hide it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Schriffen hasn't missed much. Benetti I think once took two weeks off to do the Olympics. I don't think the situations are all too comparable. My guess is also that Schriffen does have a vacation series to take and he just happens to be working over it because Vegas why not? But that is a pure guess. Benetti missing a ridiculous amount of games was something the Sox should be mad about. He did promise the Tigers 140 games or whatever though. We shall see.

Tnetennba Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 (edited) Guessing it was a prior commitment, but NBA Summer League isn't exactly high profile. Of course the Sox brass is fine with it. Edited July 22 by Tnetennba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he promised the Tigers, he gave the White Sox. Stone gets vacations of almost as many games. It's just not as noticed becuase it comes in stretches, where Jason's would be once or twice a week for a while. I think the games missed thing was just an excuse.Isn't it good publicity the voice of the White Sox is doing national games and College football and basketball. IMO, it came down to a relationship between Jason and Brooks that apparently disintegrated, with a little JR not being a fan of Jason thrown it.
