It was actually The Athletic’s reporter Dan Hayes that covers the Twins that said Minnesota was willing to trade Luke Keaschall for Fedde, not Nightengale, so does it count now or is Hayes a hack too? Hayes reported this right after the trade deadline. Sure sounds like a very direct and explicit statement to me…

I noticed this right away but I couldn’t figure out what the heck was going on.

Damn, we don’t agree on sh1t but excellent muthafvcking post!!! I would only disagree with the trade being one prospect short. Vargas was bad with the Dodgers. There was already some history there. Give me one solid prospect that hadn’t already failed miserably in the majors instead of Vargas. Getz f’ed up royally if the Twins truly offered 2B Luke Keaschall for Fedde as was reported. Keaschall, a second baseman, a position of need for our terrible team, but Getz supposedly said no because he didn’t want to deal Fedde to a division rival. Keaschall is currently #63 on MLB’s top 100 prospect listing. If you recall initially, the trade return expectation for Fedde was a prospect around 100 and a lesser prospect. Absolutely brutal decision by Getz. I won’t speak for WestEddy but the trade is already failed, considering what Getz could have gotten back for Fedde alone — a top 2B prospect named Luke Keaschall.

Notre Dame overmatched by this BR team. DB Conner Stack is the player of the game. 35-7 Crusaders with 7:19 left in the game. 4-3 now. They should beat both St. Laurence and St. Ignatious on the road to finish 6-3. I truly think they are undefeated without the injuries to their two starting guards.

Yep, the Sox are a team with an owner that refuses to pay for a star player so when you can find one for at least 6 seasons at a cheap price you can’t drop the ball and trade him for a dead arm old starting pitcher.

Getz has done so much bad that one thread alone can’t contain all of his badness.

It was mainly bad because he gave up a cheap 5+ WAR starter with another cheap year of control and got back a player that the prospect shine had already worn off of. Why Getz didn’t go the all prospect route for the main return piece (e.g., Luke Keaschall), especially with the state of this team, I will never know.

At least Clevinger bilked $3 million bucks out of our wizard GM as he sat on the IL all season.

It’s interesting how the same poster who accused other posters on this site of “circle jerking around shitting on kids just because they play for the Chicago White Sox” is also a staunch defender of Mike Clevinger. God forbid some posters may not think that Samuel Zavala will amount to anything but don’t throw baseless accusations around about Clevinger! Anyways, please point me in the correct direction of the “FIRE GETZ” circle jerk. I brought enough Jergens for everyone…

Because Getz listened to the assistant hitting coach he fired a week later.

Probably, but CHSN’s obscenely large score overlay will still just block the view of the backdrop. 🤣

Mind-blowing.

I absolutely hate that Samsung and other TV companies have started to do that with their remotes. I have a couple Samsung TVs and that has been such an annoyance to me that I buy their universal remote just to get the extra buttons. I just found there is a “Prime Big Deal” to get two of these universal Samsung remotes for $10 bucks. I just placed an order. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7B6KLH3?psc=1&smid=A3US3KTV1R02M4&ref_=chk_typ_quicklook_titleToDp

And why didn’t they just take @CHSN? Surprised no one else hasn’t taken it yet as a spoof/parody account.

Vargas and Fletcher. 🧌

There’s plenty of this guy though… “Injury law made personal. That’s Ankin Law.”

Hilarious how they needed both positions so it wouldn’t have mattered much which guy they picked and they failed on both. Reinsdorf is such a loser.

It was a small sample size but the K/9 was scary.

Wow, talk about a waste of real estate. Could they make it any bigger?

You just said the magic words and now it shall happen. Don’t forget to also tap your heels together three times…

You just made an unintentional argument for acquiring Holliday. Our coaching and development staff has not had a chance to besmirch him.

To be competitive in 2-3 years, the Sox pretty much have to hit on the Crochet trade, hold onto Robert, hope he tears it up in the first half of next season, and then hit on the return for him as well. The return for Crochet alone won’t be enough, and they need to trade both guys for bats. The Sox have like three above average position prospects that aren’t locks to be good MLB players along with a pile of crap on the current roster.
