DHL Dan CCXCVII - Q & A Session

Speaking for 'the fans', a favorite / classic tactic for passive aggressiveness, Shank airs out 'fan' grievances like it was Festivus:
Red Sox fans have more questions than answers about their last-place team, and other thoughts

Picked-up pieces in the aftermath of last weekend’s “Knives Out” Red Sox blockbuster …

⋅ The Sox on Friday returned to Fenway for a weekend series with the Astros after an unforgettable 3-3 road trip that further damaged one of baseball’s great brands. They started May in last place with a new manager, a raft of new coaches, and a 12-19 record, eight games behind the Yankees.

Boston fans have more questions than answers in the wake of the Saturday night massacre that took down Alex Cora and six of his coaches.

Let’s start with third-year president of baseball operations Craig Breslow. Exactly what has Breslow done to earn his status as King of the Red Sox? Team CEO Sam Kennedy says the axing of Cora and six coaches was entirely Breslow’s call, a decision that Kennedy says ownership “fully supported.”

“He wanted to fire everybody who was here before he got here,” a source told The Athletic.
Breslow's status is Chief Penny Pincher for the Red Sox; just think 'sports and spreadsheets'.
