I think he has a concussion from getting dunked on by Jerry, the worst owner in baseball.

Getz and the Sox make me sad. But Walton Goggins is always worth the watch. He’s great in Fallout.

Wow. Hoping this is just BS and Getz is smarter than this.

I’m shocked that Pham got that much money and that Jerry approved this signing. He must really not want to set records.

Just hit his sixth homer tonight.

Can we go back in time and trade Vaughn and a pitcher to the Dodgers for Michael Busch?

Rosario is no big loss but it’s a good thing they dumped Rodriguez only to DFA numerous guys later. But I guess it was important for the Sox to keep Bryan Shaw employed. Yes, this guy… looks like he’s about 48.

Your logic is sound my friend.

He’s better than the utter s%*# your boy acquired.

They didn’t need either of these bums. Both were going to be DFA candidates from the start of the regular season. $6 million thrown into the fire pit. ?

I was all about this one as well. Not a surprise that the Rays made better dumpster diving signings than the Sox.

So we are supposed to applaud a GM who acquired terrible players in the offseason that should be DFA after a matter of weeks? The decisions taking place now don’t remove the fact that Getz signed all these losers in the first place. The fault always goes back to him, regardless of these sad excuses people want to make for him.

I think only Brandon Belt is left at this point, after Getz already scrounged Grossman and Pham.

How many other MLB teams look like they will get shut out almost every single game? This has to be one of the worst offenses in MLB history.

The guy is terrible and they are paying $4.3 million for him.

Remember all the Sox fans that said, at least he can tell what a home run is, unlike Benetti? Oops.

At least AV sucking stops Stone from ridiculously fluffing him all the time.

That’s not me. He should’ve been cut earlier to keep Jose Rodriguez on the 40-man roster.

No, because he was called up after the deadline to retain a year of control on him.

Carrying the team to the bottom of the standings.

Don’t forget the $75 million dollar man at .367 and $4.3 million dollar Nicky Lopez at .374.

Translated: Flexen is now the long man and spot starter at best because he’s been so horrible.

Excellent post. Just made this same point in another thread. Getz’s plan of wasting money on garbage veterans was never about giving the young guys enough time to marinate in the minors. Getz only cared about waiting a few weeks to gain the extra year of control on the young guys.

$1.75 million isn’t that much in the MLB but jeez, Getz should be embarrassed he gave Flexen that much for 3 starts. His awful overall numbers weren’t enough to convince Getz that he sucked? At this point, it’s pretty obvious that Getz’s plan was to call up the youngsters once the extra year of control was locked in, and it had much less to do with waiting until the young guys got enough minor league work in to truly be ready for the majors.

Because he’s an idiot. He wants the media and fans to think he’s taking care of this epic losing situation while pretending he isn’t the one who told us.
