Yep, Gill was truly that bad. “Drafted in 2022, Gill ranked last among all punters in net yards per punt last year. He was among the worst punters in touchback rate and punts inside the 20.“

Haters hate teams with terrible owners and front offices that have no hope of winning and actually don’t even try to compete. The Sox went 61-101 last season and they are now on pace for a 31-131 record, and you are surprised there are critics of the Sox? Really? It is quite comical how your hate is so meatballishly misdirected at your so called “trolls, wise-guys, detractors and Cub fans” considering Jerry Reinsdorf is the single root cause of all of the Sox problems.

Damn them haters and their factually correct statistics!

Yeah, it needed to be said. And now Schriffen sure looks like a winner after the team he was whining about swept the Sox twice in one week.

Getz, not Hahn or Kenny, but Getz and only Getz had a horrible offseason and his frantic and ill-advised 40-man roster decisions in an attempt to fix things when those efforts are quite obviously futile have only made things worse. Anyone who doesn’t see this and can’t admit it must be blindly supporting Getz. Our GM is making decisions like a meth addict who ran out of his stash.

This guy is becoming the Hawk Harrelson of repeating the same quotes, rather than catch phrases, to the media.

More fresh meat for the grinder…

Cue the picture… @Quin knows what I’m talking about. ?

I didn’t watch or follow this one, thank god. I hope Schriffen made sure to call out all of the haters today. What did the Sox end up having for the Twins, as he put it? Laying down and getting swept by them in two series in only one week? Maybe he will learn to zip it from now on.

Definitely sounds like a perfect fit…

The Angels aren’t even a good team but it just goes to show how low the Sox are. The Sox sign Pillar to be a platoon starter in RF and backup CF. The Angels only sign Pillar after they lose one of the best outfielders in baseball to injury.

The Twins are now on the verge of sweeping the Sox for the second time in a week. Perhaps Schriffen should stay quiet and realize that he is defending a 6-24 team entirely too hard. He hasn’t even been here for a year and he’s already another one of JR’s puppets.

Getz is the one keeping Grifol employed.

Imagine fluffing your own awful signing of a 37 year old catcher with a .347 OPS for $4.5 million who should’ve retired before last season.

A good way to protect his resume. ?

Great post. I didn’t even use that angle!

Is it a surprise he is doing better with the Cubs, who have better minor league instructors than the Sox? Getz essentially turned Christian Mena and Matthew Thompson into Dominic Fletcher and cash. Where is Fletcher right now? Oh yeah, he was so bad he had to be sent to the minors. Getz is a bad GM.

After trading a 23 year old 2nd round starting pitcher for him, who is now having success with the Cubs.

No, he was not. So basically Getz made trades of prospects for older players, which also caused him to lose 40-man roster flexibility, which ultimately forced him to DFA or trade younger players for cash to make room for more veterans. I don’t see how anyone could defend how Getz has managed the 40-man roster at this point. It’s been a clusterfuck of stupid decisions.

You can’t make that stuff up. Impressive.

Jerry doesn’t want you creeping in his pocket.

Getz signs bunch of veterans in the offseason. The rationale is so he can give the younger players time to marinate in the minors. The Sox have a record poor start to the season. Getz freaks out and calls up young prospects that struggle. He also signs more veterans and cuts several young players from the 40-man roster to make room for these veterans. Getz is a terrible GM.

Unlike the discussions on whether to trade Cease during the offseason or the trade deadline, do we all agree that there is probably zero reason to not trade Fedde by this year’s trade deadline?
