Did Rick Hahn have one of the worst offseasons in baseball? I could swear that was Chris Getz. Rick Hahn contributed to this mess and was already fired for it. It’s all on Getz now.
That video is absolutely amazing and I almost spit out my beer twice with the inclusion of a picture of the Campfire Milkshake and Maldonado’s headshot. This guy has to be a poster on this site. 🤣
They face the Orioles and Corbin Burnes tomorrow. Chalk up #108!
How does this even get missed with how X-rays, MRI’s, and CT scans are done for almost anything and everything, even for high school athletes? This is a major league team (well, not really). Amazing.
Terrible trades and signings. He basically destroyed the success of his one really good signing (Fedde) with the garbage return he got for him.
Truly amazing that Vargas was their target. He had already shown nothing in 424 plate appearances with the Dodgers and I have no idea why they would want a guy with a poor glove as well.
What in the hell did Tosar and Getz see in this guy? That’s his second major failed player acquisition after Fletcher.
You know this isn’t happening. Getz will be doing some more failed dumpster diving as they drop the payroll to $100 million to be a bottom 5 payroll team.
His backstory is insane. He may have been high when that ball bounced off of his head…

Sure, he roped Getz into acquiring worthless Vargas. But Tosar is gone now so Getz will have to eat the blame at this point. Former director of player development… what a joke.
He was before my time but I actually remember his name. He actually wasn’t a bad player in his earlier years for Detroit. He was good earlier in his career but he was done by the time the Sox acquired him. But he was damn sure no where near as good as Lemon.
Also crazy that his teammate interjected about getting something for him. That would never happen nowadays. Back when it was only about winning. Bull didn’t care about Chet earning his living apparently.
