who would have thought the media would be wrong in their pre judgement of a HOF manager?

Tony is going to turn out to be a good hire. His main jobs are to set the line-up and manage the bullpen. He'll excel at both.

I was told two weeks ago by Francis that he was going to make every single player on the Sox a Gold Glover through his rigorous attention to defensive mechanics.

Much like the pitching coach fixing Carlos Rodon, let's wait and see. What else are players gonna say during spring training when nothing is going wrong?

LaRussa will probably be fine. Unless he finds Coop's hidden stash in the clubhouse.

Outside of the pitching coach and Larussa I have no idea who the rest of the full staff is. I assume they are heavy on the things Hahn and Kenny feel Tony is short on at this age.

I seem to recall The Score freaking out that Tony would ruin the Sox over the "bat flip issue". What a stupid station!

Bernstein is a conservative/republican who's just acting like he's 'woke' to keep his job.

How did they get the embalming fluid out of him? Or did they just replace it with bourbon?

I think we've started building that culture. Now that Tony is the head of our team, his personality suits us incredibly well.”

A lot of the guys complained last year that winning wasn't the priority with Renteria so I can see why Tony's attitude works with this group that is hungry for something more.

Yes even great managers make questionable and downright stupid moves from time to time over the course of 162 games. There definitely was a brief time to bemoan Lamb in the middle of the lineup.

Don't worry, rogue. Even when the Sox win the World Series you will be able to find plenty of things on the internet to be outraged over.

Franky the pussy sure couldn't run to his vaccine appointment, in which he lied about his job and line jumped all these old people as he traveled cross country to get his vaccine in February.

Bob now recycling gif's. Very sad.

To me, the world's biggest Covid pussy is a guy who talked a big game all winter about how he would "never" get the vaccine and how it would "never" be effective and he would never wear a mask anyway, then continued to mask up and booked himself the very first appointment that he possibly could.

Bob, if LaRussa was managing Frank’s life, what would be the first few actions he would take?

Loan him his ID and AARP card so he could be first in line next month for the 'Rona booster.

Why does it bother you that Frank got vaccinated? That seems like an odd line of attack.

Bob is more bothered by his own hypocrisy, lack of integrity, and lack of intelligence so he lashes out at others.

Cutting in front of vulnerable old people so they can die isn't integrity, Frank Cuomo.
