  1. Ahem… see Kopech. I tend to agree with the health issues you noted when it comes to Moncada, but I would not be surprised at all if he had a comeback season with a team like the Dodgers.
  2. I wouldn’t mind seeing Sizemore be a bench coach.
  3. You sure about that? I see a 3 ERA in this year’s playoffs. Are you accidentally looking at Kopech’s career postseason stats instead? 3 horrible postseason innings with the Sox and 9 good postseason innings with the Dodgers. What a surprise! The Sox were robbed blind in that trade no matter which way anyone wants to try to portray it. Getz is bad.
  4. Are you sure you aren’t citing that incorrect article that listed Grifol as receiving TLR’s salary? That’s my guess. In any case, imagine being Venable and looking at his current roster. He could be the diamond in the rough as far as new managers go, but imagine having to win with whatever offseason of dumpster diving that Getz comes up with? Poor guy. Good luck, Will…
  5. OL Bill Murray to the IR with a pectoral injury.
  6. Or manage here for 2 years and never get another manager job again. See Pedro Grifol and countless others that came before him. A manager is only going to be as good as the players a GM surrounds him with. I sure as hell wouldn’t trust Getz to be the guy to surround me with good talent.
  7. https://nypost.com/2024/10/28/sports/matt-eberflus-mocked-for-dumbest-comment-after-hail-mary-disaster/ “Chicago’s head coach, after witnessing the Washington Commanders top his Bears in spectacular fashion on Sunday, told reporters that the play immediately preceding the game-winning, buzzer-beating Hail Mary “doesn’t really matter.”
  8. One of the final candidates is an old school guy in Nevin that announced to a Mariners player that he would be throwing at him in the very next game, and then used an opener to do it. This doesn’t sound like a move that a sober manager makes, so apparently we may not be done hiring old drunk guys. He also loves bunting and IBB’s.
  9. A battle of two cheap bad teams. Who will win the Venable derby?
  10. This is true, but the Sox are a career ender for managers. Especially in their current state.
  11. Yes, he did. Venable is the Rangers “associate manager”. He’s probably just waiting for Bochy to retire so he can get the full manager gig with them. He turned down interviewing for the Mets’ manager job last year.
  12. Yes, Getz is very much equal opportunity with terrible players of any ethnicity.
  13. I’m not saying you aren’t correct but imagine trying to get the cheap Marlins to up their offer for a no name managerial candidate by using the also cheap Sox to up the ante? It’s pretty sad and hilarious to think about.
  14. That’s hilarious. Looks like Getz even snuck in some of his own questions for that free advice… Identify one player the White Sox should look to acquire via trade or free agency this offseason. What would it take to acquire this player? Why do you recommend the White Sox target this player? Who is one prospect outside MLB.com’s Top 100 that you believe is underrated? Provide a brief scouting report. In terms of analytics and technology, where can MLB organizations look to gain a competitive edge in the coming years?
  15. Taunting the fans and not even paying attention to the snap of the ball until five seconds later. What a loser. Serves him right. He had nothing to taunt about anyways considering the game he had.
  16. Don’t worry, the Sox new managerial hire will lift our spirits! 🤣
  17. Yep, you obviously know what’s coming but it’s the last play of the game. You can at least give your defense a breather before it.
  18. Some people actually expected the Sox to spend some money this offseason considering they would be dumping Eloy and Moncada and their payroll will be so low. I can’t wait to see the damage Getz does in the dumpsters this offseason. Should be exciting!
