“#CC Sabathia blasts Tony La Russa over ‘unwritten rules’ comments<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

CC Sabathia didn\u2019t sugarcoat his feelings on the Tony La Russa saga with the White Sox.<\/p>\n

The former Yankees southpaw went off on the \u201cR2C2\u201d podcast<\/a>, ripping the 76-year-old La Russa for criticizing his own player, Yermin Mercedes, for swinging and homering on a 3-0 pitch against a position player in a blowout and then having no issue with the Twins throwing behind him the next day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s just f\u2014ing stupid. It\u2019s stupid period, I\u2019m sorry,\u201d he fumed. \u201cThe s\u2013t is terrible. He shouldn\u2019t be f\u2014ing managing that team, and if you\u2019re not going to step up and have your player\u2019s back, what\u2019s the point of being the f\u2014ing manager of the White Sox? S\u2013t is stupid as f\u2013k, sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n

La Russa called Mercedes \u201cclueless\u201d and said he missed a take sign. When Tyler Duffey threw at him the next day, La Russa didn\u2019t have a problem with it. Several White Sox players have supported Mercedes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is what I was telling you when they hired him,\u201d Sabathia said. \u201cHe\u2019s just so out of touch with the game<\/a> and most people are. I sit here and watch Christopher Russo on MLB Network. He\u2019s out of touch with the game. Like Tony La Russa is out of touch with the game. He should not be managing one of the best teams in the American League, period. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that Tim Anderson, who is basically the captain of their team, had to go on Instagram and step up for his teammate, like, \u2018Yeah, the game wasn\u2019t over. If you\u2019re going to put a f\u2014ing position player in there to pitch, guess what? If he\u2019s going to lob s\u2013t over the plate, we going to f\u2013king tee off.\u2019 Put a 10-run rule up there. If ya\u2019ll don\u2019t want to see people get embarrassed and you don\u2019t want to see position players pitch and people swing on 3-0 counts and all that s\u2013t, then make it a 10-run rule so the f\u2013king game would be over and you don\u2019t have these stupid-ass unwritten rules.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
