agreed, but i promise you, the dumb f***s in the Sox front office will sign another Paxton, Hendricks, Sandoval, etc again this winter. they just never learn.
i think he shoulders some of the blame for the Devers situation and i've questioned him about a lot of other things. with that said, i wouldn't have fired him, had the Sox not made the playoffs, due to the simple reason that half the lineup is made of porcelain dolls that can't stay healthy for s***.
i've always considered myself to be very critical of not so much the players, but definitely Cora and the front office, Freddy takes it to whole new level.
Scherzer got rocked his last game. from espn: the Royals sent 10 batters to the plate against Max Scherzer (5-4), who exited after recording just two outs and allowing seven hits in the shortest non-injury start of his career. It was Scherzer’s shortest outing since facing just one batter while pitching for Washington on June 11, 2021, before leaving with an injury.
you forgot to note that to make matters even worse, the geniuses in the Sox front office also paid $17 million of Sale's salary for his first year in Atlanta. so.....think about this: Brezlow has traded Sale and Devers for nothing. a monkey could do a better job than these clowns.
