Pythagoras' expectations are his own. He never even saw a baseball game. Most people who have thought the Sox should be better than they were.

He always seemed to look at all sides and know the right angle.

Since you are all smarter than me.....when does Rob get fired? Get rid of Hahn...well if Hahn goes you know the new GM will want his own guy...unlike Hahn who stuck with Rob ( probably on orders from Kenny and Jerry ) I want change.. not the third straight losing season this organization has put together

How does he rank among MLB managers for sacrificing outs (bunts)?

I don't have any strong feelings one way or the other, but it's hard to win when you get limited to no offensive production from 3B, SS, 2B, C, DH, and RF for large chunks of the season.

Sox are 22nd in bunts. 7th in the AL.

http://www.sportingcharts.com/mlb/stats ... game/2015/

Cubs are 20th, but only the Mets have bunted less in the NL. Could be the Lester sucks at everything effect though. Bottom 3 NL teams in bunting all in the playoffs.

least of the problems.... try firing the ENTIRE scouting and player development department first... the same department that hasn't developed a positional player in 20 years

Well sort of. Scouting pros yes and developing positional players sure. It is clear though over last several years their plan is to draft pitching first and it has worked.

I should have said few years starting with Hahn and Sale for the jackass Cub fans in White Sox business. I didn't realize the Sox needed to be held to a 10 year plan.

Well for all you dumb ass Sock fans Hahn didn't draft Sale..in fact his first draft would have been 2012.... maybe you should stick to posting in the Cubs section.... :lol:
