@susanslusser He can bully college kids into being good and dangle scholarship over their heads etc. schtick doesn’t work in MLB with players that actually have talent and belong there off of merit. What is his merit? College?

[MLB Front Office Guru @POBOBurner]

@Abnegazar1 @susanslusser I’m all for giving him a chance too but he he’s set up for failure right now and it won’t work because he had no experience….its jsut inevitable….he should be the bench coach for 4-5 yrs under someone like Washington on his staff not the other way around and learn how to manage

@susanslusser Just rookie In over his head. Remember his first press conference at mlb he started pointing fingers at the media. Probably the worst manager in MLB. Doesn’t know how to handle 26 different personalities since he’s a rookie. Just unfortunate hire

[MLB Front Office Guru @POBOBurner]

MLB front office is a disaster. Bad decisions after bad decisions then blame the players. Every single item of all the bs they pushed out the last few weeks screams greed. How do we screw the players and control every single ounce of free market and take it away from them. Doubt there’s baseball next yr because these requests by owners are too huge….not realistic

[Thomas Nestico @TJStats]

There is absolutely no reason to restrict player's negotiating power other than to pressure them into signing under-market contracts. Every MLB proposal just reeks of greed.

@mike_petriello Red Sox have 3rd highest War, but 8th overall record. It’s not luck. Luck doesn’t explain 10+ games. There are some catchers def for example that are first since trade deadline in C defense on Prospectus but almost last on FG. 2 sites but drastically diff results.

[MLB Front Office Guru @POBOBurner]

82-80 can easily flip to 80-82 if we don’t lock it in. We need to be leaning on the vets and best defenders. It’s go time right now.

[MLB Front Office Guru @POBOBurner]

Fangraphs has my white Sox winning the division with 82-80 record while guardians finish 2nd with 81-81 record. We are about to find out down the stretch the hard way why Cleveland always wins it. It’s defense. It’s Patrick Bailey who giants couldn’t even give away, it’s Austin hedges, it’s Rochio, Kwan, Ramirez etc. defense wins. Getz and our FO is trying to tell our mgr this by giving them certain players. Venable needs to be writing our lineup on who can win us a 1-0 ball game.

[David @WeinoChi]

Randal Grichuk vs Jacob DeGrom:

5/13 with 2 HRs

For some reason he’s on the bench. Make it make sense Venable.

[MLB Front Office Guru @POBOBurner]

There is a ton of baseball left. Cleveland Gaurdians will win the AL Central if my White Sox don’t start paying attention. We can’t hit now and we have to play playoff style ball, it’s about defense ask Cleveland, who give you best chance to win 1-0 ball games. That’s who needs to be playing in the field. Guardians always win it off this

Astros owner Jim Crane is at Yankee Stadium, where he just left a closed-door meeting inside manager Joe Espada’s office in the visiting clubhouse.
