@charliemidnite @Steve_Perrault Game planner and run prevention. So would the pitching coach be more accountable for run prevention? He’s still here. The offense and lack of power has been the problem The pitching will be fine.

@eduff56 @Steve_Perrault We are not questioning his ability to work with catchers. His job and title was run prevention coordinator and lets be honest, it hasn't been stellar.

I can’t get over how the Sox handled the Varitek situation publicly. Saying you “reassigned” one of the most important players in team history just to save face when you were firing him too is a joke. Former Sox legends are gonna see that and want nothing to do with these guys.

@BradleyGrinnen @BostonStrong_34 He looks like the guy behind the counter at the Computer store explaining what’s needed on your laptop and you just keep shaking your head without having any idea what he’s talking about.

I've found him! His name is Pablo Cabrera. He looks like he is in the witness protection program as a whistleblower inside a big company for tax fraud. Welcome to the Majors! I wish you well Pablo! @BostonStrong_34 pointed him out to me first and I said this there.

Trevor Bauer @BauerOutage just threw a no-hitter in his second game with the Long Island Ducks. Bauer was falsely accused of sexual misconduct. Was never convicted of any crimes yet was SUSPENDED by MLB for an entire season and has been blackballed by the league ever since. One of Bauer's accusers was convicted of FRAUD in this case... but Bauer himself is clean. Again... the media went berserk when Colin Kaepernick couldn't find work in the NFL (because he was washed up) but the same media hasn't said a word about Bauer. Here is a man, with actual ability, *ACTUALLY* being blackballed by a professional sports league. CRICKETS... I wonder why. Trevor Bauer deserves a shot in the MLB. What happened to him is a grave injustice.

@TJBennettt37 What they tapped into is a healthy Harrison which hadn’t been the case for the most part. He was a top prospect, the talent was there. Good for him, got an opportunity before he would get one here and is running with it.

The real question they should ask if about Kyle Harrison. I get he was on the back burner in the prospect pipeline and maybe it didn’t gel here with him, but Milwaukee tapped into that potential big time. Also boils down to coaching and maybe that changes with Tracy

The front office believed in David Hamilton despite trading him to the Brewers. When he returned to Fenway in April and played well, the FO began to question the coaching staff’s developmental process with young guys: "Why do a lot of players go to other places and get better? Why do other guys come here and get worse?" (via @byJulianMack)

@tylermilliken_ @byJulianMack i mean ofc, why wouldn’t they? Harrison, Priester, Hamilton are 3 obvious answers. All 3 of the guys have been significantly better on those teams and that’s only 3 example out of the dozens I could go and find.

When David Hamilton returned to Fenway this month and played well against the Red Sox, the front office again began questioning the coaching staff's developmental process with younger players, per @byJulianMack.

@tylermilliken_ @byJulianMack Anyone who buys this crap needs to find another hobby. He was here plenty long enough to know what he is and a good series doesn’t change that. Mediocre defender hitting .234 leads to questioning? Laughable.

@Steve_Perrault Tek was a legendary player, captain, leader etc for the Red Sox. Unfortunately, Tek the coach was nothing like Tek the player.

"One of the most important players in franchise history?" Why? Because he had a fight with Alex Rodriguez during a nationally televised game? What an idiotic statement. Varitek was fired because he was one of "Cora's guys." It was an internal battle between Craig Bresloq and Alex Cora. And Breslow won. But, he won't be there too mich longer himself.

"Alex Cora did the best he could with the talent he was given." Oh really? Well let's look at what he could control: -Refusing to let players steal -Refusing to let players use ABS -Refusing to not use Weissert in mop-up

@OwBroMedia Released? Highly unlikely as he has another year on his deal paying 25 per this and next. You say long supporter like he had other choices. including the phenom currently platooning at 2b.

I do wonder now that Cora is gone, who has been a long supporter of Trevor Story, what his status on the team is. Does he get moved to second base? Does he become a bench piece? Does he ultimately get traded or released? We'll likely know the answer(s) in the coming weeks
Tyler Milliken@tylermilliken_

There were some in the Red Sox organization who believed Trevor Story was past his prime and no longer capable of being an everyday impact player, per @byJulianMack. The front office was not fully convinced by his 2025 numbers. Questions were raised internally when he hit #2.

Trump was once scouted by the Philadelphia Phillies during his time playing first base at the New York Military Academy. Most people have never heard about this.

@erikf08 @Hogdale_ The phenom that has never played more than 90 games and hasn’t proved he can hit. I’m rooting for him but let’s slow the roll.

@Hogdale_ Then once again, Breslow is the one that fk’d up. Could’ve traded Story off his great season last year and inserted the phenom that is Marcelo Mayer. But today Story is past his prime. I guess that’s Cora’s fault too.

@candanfield @BOSSportsGordo These clowns look for a reason to hit on Cora and the staff. I’m pretty sure there are teams debating firing their Manager to bring him right now if he wants to jump right back in.

@BOSSportsGordo And so we begin with the FSG smear campaign. Hamilton has a .605 OPS this year, he is what he always has been.

Now we know Cora wouldn’t let Early go out there for the 7th inning after only 84 pitches thru 6. That’s a fact. Whether you like him as a person or not, he was an awful manager of a pitching staff. #Redsox
