He got away from this hellhole and immediately started tearing it up. -
Clevinger to IL, Woodford coming up, Peralta DFA Part II
WhiteSox2023 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The names change (both GM and players) but the offseason strategy never does. -
Clevinger to IL, Woodford coming up, Peralta DFA Part II
WhiteSox2023 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I guess. The timing on bringing Clevinger in was questionable. He still needed to get ramped up to pitch and the Sox had already been on pace for a historically bad season. Getz did hit on Fedde and Pham, while DeJong and Tim Hill look like meh signings. Getz is about 2 for 10, batting .200. -

In an already lost season, pitching poorly, and with this new injury (the last two being hindsight I realize), Clevinger appears to be a waste of money just like most of Getz’s other offseason acquisitions. Brebbia — $7 million Maldonado — $4.5 million Nicky Lopez — $4.3 million Mike Clevinger — $3 million Mike Soroka — $3 million Chris Flexen — $1.75 million $23.55 million wasted on complete and utter crap. All players that are DFA candidates. -

It’s pretty funny how all this scrambling for players by Getz hasn’t really moved the needle on their record, although it sure has made him look like a half-assed GM with zero plan. -

Peralta it is. Not sure why they wouldn’t just dump Remillard. He has been successfully DFA and outrighted to Charlotte twice this year already. -

I wouldn’t be surprised but with Ramos back they should just DFA Remillard for the third time this year, lol. Only the Sox want him. -

WhiteSox2023 replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I thought he would pitch better than he has, although he did miss all of spring training. Not as well as last year but better than he has this year. I was hoping to see him pitch well so we would finally have the unquestionable answer on why no one traded for him last year, since no one could blame his contract this year. -

I just mean hindsight due to his poor performance and this new injury. -

This is hindsight I admit, but was it really worth $3 million to sign this guy and piss a bunch of Sox fans off? -
Exactly. I almost think umps like Cowboy Joe West and Angel Hernandez made strange calls to put the attention on themselves and make the game about them rather than the teams and players. I think the MLB is looking to phase out all of these “character” umps.
-
I didn’t even know about Hernandez’s lawsuit until I read the big long article from JR’s USA Today minion Bob.

When your team has a collection of bad young major leaguers and old crappy veterans and you know your owner will never approve signing top free agents, what else is there to hope for than prospects turning into something?
-
He always plays Mr. Nice Guy so he doesn’t lose the few team sources that he may have.
-
He was by far the worst of all umpires and that’s why the MLB paid him to retire.
-
I like how all the players seem to be colluding to disagree with whatever Grifol says to the media. Seems pretty obvious at this point that they are trying to get him fired.

Yep, it was a negotiated retirement. The MLB paid him to retire. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2024/05/27/angel-hernandez-retires-mlb-umpire-stats/73873676007/

Back on pace for a 45-117 record.

$7 million burned in a fire pit ? to go right along with Maldonado and Lopez’s combined $8.8 million. $15.8 million guaranteed to three players that are DFA candidates. Getz is terrible at his job.
-
Amazing that anyone would actually exert some effort to defend Grifol. Sure, the team is awful but Grifol is a terrible manager in his own right and should be fired for his own individual shortcomings, regardless of the awful team that Getz put together.

9 hits but only one run scored on the solo homer. ?

The delusions of grandeur must’ve rubbed off of Schriffen and onto The Legend.
