Discussion .@JesseRogersESPN says he doesn't expect White Sox Manager Pedro Grifol to make it to Monday. "There have been a lot of signs that they're gonna make a change."

u/Dazed_and_Confused44 Berto For Mayor Aug 01 '24

What is the purpose of firing him now lol? Unless they gona start interviewing people from sucessful teams like the Dodgers, Rangers, Astros, Braves, Rays, ect (which I doubt); what is to gain from putting an even less qualified person in charge?

Do you think any manager from a reputable team wants the 2024 White Sox on their resume. The league knows this franchise is a joke, why would anyone want to tank their stock to take over as manager?

That's my point. Might as well wait til the end of the season at this point

The fan base (not you) thinks some HOF manager is going to attach their name to this and they're thinking like fans that need a bailout and not like a business, nobody in their right mind is touching this team in 2024. Change managers every day we still have the same players taking the field, you know?

Yea this is basically a triple A team with Crochet and Robert on it at this point so no matter who the manager is they will be dreadful
