Woof. I wish him well, but man, what missed potential.

For cash considerations?

Chicago style pizza, Chicago dogs, and Italian beefs.

Maybe Getz is just trolling us with this shitty return and is gonna do another three-way with LAD and STL for Crochet and Brebbia and actually get something of excess value. No, I don’t really believe this.

Maybe Getz just got out of a coma a realized the deadline was coming and he needed to get rid of some guys.

f*** me. I’m not one to be negative usually but how did the Cards fleece us so hard? Multiple teams looking at. Fedde and Kopech at a minimum, and you throw Pham in and get this return? Jeezus.

If this is it, this is s%*#.

I could be way off base but unless these A-ball guys are super highly regarded, we traded a lot for little of use as far as I can tell.

This seems like…whatever the opposite of wishful thinking is. Yes, my post was an attempt to spread some positivity. But your supposition that virtually no one is getting traded is far less grounded in reality than mine. I suppose the next 30 hours or so will tell the tale.

Today is the day we start seeing some of our Sox get laundered, as it were. Boob says “The White Sox could unload as many as seven players before the deadline: Garrett Crochet Erick Fedde Luis Robert Jr. Michael Kopech Chris Flexen Tommy Pham Paul DeJong” I think we see motion on some of the non-Crochet and Robert bunch today so tomorrow can be spent bidding up those last two. And though not mentioned in the article, I’ve seen talk that StL might take a flyer on Brebbia, so maybe eight guys could go. Watch flights from CLT to MCI, I guess. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2024/07/28/mlb-trade-deadline-rumors-2024/74576044007/

f*** that s%*#. Sleepy can kiss my ass. Thanks for 1983, I guess.

I get what people are saying in terms of maybe getting something of value at the deadline if Tim can rebound, but I think Getz really wanted to clean house of the bad attitudes. I think our trade deadline guys are Cease, Eloy, and Moncada. If they can have a good first half, ship ‘em and kick this latest rebuild into high gear.

His name is Long Dong deJong, or something like that.

This needs to get done. And then book the 100th anniversary All-Star Game there, as god intends.

More like “That was now. This is Then.”

Most recently a Royal!

Updated headline made me laugh. Is he a landlord in this scenario? That’s a “lessor.” “Lesser” means reduced. That’s the word you’re looking for. Now, I’ve paid no attention whatsoever to this story. If there is a rental property component to this, lessor it is.

Hawk Harrelson has time on his hands. And GM experience!

Jake was an occasional bright spot this year. Good luck in MIA!

Sad news. RIP Dave.

Apparently not

Very good news. Played great last year, insurance at short in case Tim gets injured, cheap $$. Let the bitching commence!

Look at this uni! Grinder!!

Oh, I know. I just wanted to cut in front of you to steal a fly ball, as it were. on another note, at least Pollock and Kimbrel can see their old buddies at Camelback for another week.

Ahem
