Bernstein calling Jerry Reinsdorf a racist for hiring TLR.

He (Jerry Reinsdorf) wanted the baseball police to come in because he was afraid of the embrace of another culture.

Huh ?? TLR didnt do anything to deter that wonderful Latino player culture . He didnt police shit on a team that obviously needs it .

He's part of it, sure. Only a simpleton would absolve him from all blame for the 2022 season.

In fact, the same collection of bums and misfits had a winning record under Miguel Cairo. Had the Sox played to the same win% under TLR in 2022, they win 86 games and get the second wild card.

Hard for me to blame him with all the injuries, though. There's the five wins right there.

They may have had a chance to win a playoff series with Cueto and Cease. But that team was frankly limited, even without the injuries.
Sox had more injuries in 2021 and won 93 games. Now it was not the same team, but still.

Remember, this was also the same organization that had Dallas Keuchel, who at the time had an ERA well over 5, call the team out for lackluster play and their seemingly careless attitude. Certainly the great Tony LaRussa should have recognized this and done the same right?

Yeah, come to think of it, that is true.

However, 2022 didn't have Rodon and Good (edit: Decent) Giolito, and they had a truly hapless Moncada and Kopech starting (useless after his hot start). I think 2021 was a significantly better team.

TLR was in no way the right man for the job. I think when he did call players out, he got roasted in the media. I don't think he cared, but we seem to have a double-standard there: He's too old school if he calls people out, too past his prime if he doesn't.

The only time TLR publicly called one of his own players out, it was a rookie who swung at a 3-0 pitch off a position player. He may have single handedly ruined that kid's MLB career.

Not saying Mercedes didn't deserve a talking to, but you do that privately in the locker room. You don't do that shit thru the media. Even Grifol would know better than that.

I think there is a difference between being an old school hard ass, and letting people nap during the game and miss meetings with zero repercussions.

True.

But I am starting to think that he got the most he was gonna get out of this team, and that they turned out to be what they really are: a slow, unaggressive team with poor fundamentals. They were about the eighth-best Sox team since 1990. And the least likable.

Yep LaRussa’s scathing criticism of a career minor leaguer who couldnt hit before or after a 5 week stretch when teams didnt know who he was mightve derailed his career . Fucking moron .

Frank may have exaggerated that a bit, but what he says here makes sense:

I took out an unnecessary comma, btw.

Parkins and Spiegel reporting TA and Yas got into a fight in July.

This, of course, is evidence that Yas has to go, not that TA seems to have a screw loose right now. Yas should go cuz he sucks, not for fighting with Timmay.

I guess the common denominator in a lot of this is just going to go unspoken. Next thing you know we’n be just referring to him as “ teens” . Or Justin Fields

I hope Timmy brought more than a wet noodle after he squared up.

So disappointed. He looked great and then he let that fat little hog knock him out.

Always wanted Ramirez on the Sox. I'm sure they'll get him in five years.

Honestly, the 2022 2023 Sox could have used a Jeff Torborg type guy. A manager who would let the guys be guys and have fun, but also wouldn't put up with the bullshit we've seen here the last 2+ seasons.

I think that's the funniest part of the whole thing. He dropped his glove and squared up like he'd been working out with Tyson. First punch he takes and it's lights out...

The common dominator-- other than your incessant postings in this section-- here is the white male owner. Period.

Parkins wanted Grifol to call out Sox defense of TA after the TKO as ‘lackluster.’

Thanks to Parkins and Spiegal for reporting news so old that, if it were a woman, Dennis wouldn't date it

Is that anything like the Score hosts defense of Danny Mac for insulting the appearance of Maria Taylor?

Ramirez should have gotten the same. 4 and 4 would have been about right.

Yep, good dude at heart. I mean, he's actually the victim in all this when you think about it. Lots of good dudes at heart commit adultery, impregnate other women while married.

I never said there weren't problems in the clubhouse. I only pushed back on the narrative that the White Sox don't have rules. Wasn't Thieving Lynn supposed to be part of the solution?

LaRussa has never been "the baseball police." He's always been a players' manager. About the only beef he has ever had with a player was with J.D. Drew, who last I checked, wasn't a Joyful Latino.

I think Ron Gant accused him of racism .
