You can definitely blame Uncle Jerry for that. He offered a lot more, but nearly 15% of the contract was deferred.

About time!

I'm sure it was all part of Rick Hahn's grand plan to sign Machado's brother-in-law to ensure he would sign with the Sox as well! Surely that wasn't some shitfuck Kenny or Jerry scheme.

Forgot about that

If this guy is a good choice for the Sox why did the Royals go with some goober from the Rays instead of him?

No Cubans. We have Cubans.

Since the base coaches are usually also responsible for practice around defense and base running, I'd hope that they are being replaced as well.

According to some baseball insider on the Score today, Royals ownership mandated they hire someone from outside the organization. Who knows if it’s true but that’s the story.

I will give the guy credit he is a good interview. Enjoyed listening to him with Parkins and Meat. "Everything we do is going to be about kicking your ass at 7:10"

I heard bits and pieces of that, and agree. I was almost expecting a "we're going to have a selfish and undisciplined team" type of press conference

I don't care if we lose 158 games as long as we win the 4 against the cubs

The Sox have had productivity and or hustling problems with Cubans Robert, Grandal, Moncada. Top prospect Oscar Colas hyped as "The Cuban Ohtani". Would Pedro Grifol be hired if he wasn't Cuban-American?

yes, sir

sorry

Edit that and apologize

If the Sox Cubans were hustling, durable, and productive he probably wouldn't be the new Sox manager.

Interesting Sox talk the last few days. LAD have 25 data geeks, Cubs 10, cheap Sox only 5. Rick Hahn admitted the Sox weren't using data to prepare for games properly and were at a huge disadvantage. Sounds like the Sox will go cheap this year and probably the Cubs too.

I'm shocked.
