Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
WhiteSox2023 replied to Paulie4Pres's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Can we still not judge Getz as a GM because it’s all Hahn and JR’s fault? The dude burned $24 million in a fire pit on garbage players this past offseason. Had he spent that money more wisely, I’m sure he wouldn’t be staring at the worst record in MLB history in his near future. -
The White Sox strategy/mantra for decades. The best part is that all of the players in my list, other than Brebbia and Clevinger, were proven to be terrible players over years and not worth signing for any more than maybe a million bucks or as a non-roster invitee. Getz decided to pay them more with guaranteed contracts.

Speaking of which, does anyone have access to Baseball America’s most recent Top 100 update to check where Keaschall is ranked? -

He’s just another swing for the fences every AB player. That crap works at AAA but not in the bigs. -
Hopefully the Oakland curse continues.

Thanks for fulfilling a very important role and providing us with this positive update!

2B/CF Luke Keaschall Draft: 2023, Minnesota Twins, Round: 2, Overall Pick: 49 Twins #5 prospect MLB’s #92 overall prospect My guess is that he is rated even higher on Baseball America’s most recent Top 100 update with the way he has raked this season. -

Yep. If there’s a bad decision to make, Getz will make it almost every time. Don’t forget trading for Fletcher instead of McCarthy and cutting Pillar too early. I thought he was supposed to know about player development and scouting? -
19 losses in a row, no doubt due to Getz having a historically bad offseason. Getz essentially burned $24 million in a fire pit this past offseason. That’s pretty much Bryce Harper’s annual salary. Fire this fucking loser along with GriFAIL. Brebbia - $5.5 million Maldonado - $4.5 million Lopez - $ 4.3 million Soroka - $3 million Clevinger - $3 million Hill - $1.8 million Flexen - $1.75 million

Vargas blows. Getz couldn’t pick the right player if he could see the future. He’s that terrible of a GM. -
This is simply amazing.

Burger will soon be back over an .800 OPS after starting the season horribly. -

He wasted $5.5 million on Brebbia alone, and then failed to trade him. Getz is terrible. -
Maybe, maybe not. Either way, the Cease return wasn’t looking that hot before this injury.
-
Kjerstad was already putting up a .790 OPS.
-
Yep, sorry, typo. I had Berroa on the mind because he was just called up.
-
I believe fathom was also referring to Thorpe’s bad past two starts and Zavala and Berroa also disappointing in the minors.
-
This team is cursed. Good thing Getz acquired 24 year old Vargas with 5 years of control rather than a promising prospect with full control like the Twins offer and choosing when to call up said prospect. Instead, even if Vargas pans out, he will be wasting service time while Thorpe is healing from his inevitable upcoming TJ surgery.
-
Claimed due to Thorpe likely needing TJ surgery soon. ?
