Texsox Posted June 19, 2016 Share Posted June 19, 2016 He should get a pass for last night. That loss clearly is on the front office and the 5th starter they acquired. No manager was going to pull that one out of the loss pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're done micro-analyzing what is and what is not Ventura's fault. He's done either now or on October 2nd. If any of the 29 other teams want to tap into the brilliant baseball mind of Robin Ventura, they're going to have that chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Robin secretly forced Hahn to trade for Shields. Edited June 19, 2016 by Special K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be shocked if he receives an offer from a team. But I would be more surprised if he doesn't just retire as a footnote in Sox managerial history.

I agree, but I base that more on his choice than no one else willing to give him a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pat response is Greg Walker was hired almost immediately after leaving the Sox. Baseball guys have more lives than a cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
