.470 OPS and leading off. What a freaking bust.

I thought only Arroyo was named in the trade rumor… https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/mlb/reds/2025/01/30/edwin-arroyo-reds-prospect-shortstop-white-sox-luis-robert-trade-rumor/78059145007/

Baldwin blew it.

Apparently, Jerry was scolded for his stupid Ohtani comments last year. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2025/04/13/mlb-free-agents-lance-lynn-vladimir-guerrero/83060198007/

Outman is garbage but this would’ve made it a great trade. I would be surprised if the Sox managed to get a prospect the caliber of De Paula by the time all is said and done. He’s rated the 3rd best Dodgers prospect and 37th overall by MLB Pipeline.

Yeah, Getz made some real steals with Rojas, Tauchman, Slater, and Taylor. Old guys that can’t stay healthy. That was $10+ million down the drain. You seriously think those were good signings by Getz? The only thing worse than those signings was him trading young players for mediocre old relievers with no history of success.

Exactly why you don't jump to sign old vets just cuz you think you are getting a deal at $2 million per old bum. Slater was Getz's #1 offseason target. He even said so. LOL, what a moron.

Agreed on Fletcher, and I don't even like him. Playing an even older bum in Palacios makes zero sense. Canario is the guy Getz should have acquired. He only cost "cash considerations" which Getz already collected plenty of for Jerry. We are literally wasting at bats on Palacios, Taylor, and Maton in a non-competitive season. Stupid as hell. Getz has no idea WTF he is doing.

Canario with a home run and two walks tonight for the Pirates. He's also playing CF. Would have loved seeing him in our lineup over Palacio, Taylor, and Maton. A 24-year old with power over wasting at bats on these three bums. We already know what the future holds for Palacio, Taylor, and Maton. At least Canario still has a shot. https://mlb-cuts-diamond.mlb.com/FORGE/2025/2025-04/12/3cdef3fd-8cb1f852-7fd14b48-csvm-diamondgcp-asset_1280x720_59_16000K.mp4

Good point. I think they tried with Madrigal, but they were just obsessed with the high batting average and low strikeouts and didn't realize that he couldn't draw walks. He just weakly swung for contact when he was down to 2 strikes.

Yeah, you missed the point entirely. A rebuilding team shouldn't be entering a season with the grand idea of a Tauchman/Slater platoon.

If Getz had done a good job in his previous roles and current role, he'd have a young outfielder to play right now rather than Palacios and Taylor and Maton at DH. That's simply embarrassing.

Yes, it was. Fans got a great game this Saturday afternoon.

No one would have guessed their first series win would be against Boston. Red Sox fans must be disgusted right now.

Wow, Sosa. Nice swing.

TRADE ROBERT WHILE HIS VALUE IS HIGH!!!

Two seasons in a row. I can't wait to see what Getz has in store for us next season.

Last night's game was fun. Now back to reality.

Andrew isn't in a slump, Stone Pony. He just sucks.

Starting Maton, Palacios, and Taylor. Gotta love a rebuild...

He's 34.

I’m sure they wanted the extra year of control, which was the right move anyways.

Better than lifting and carrying water for the worst GM in baseball.

How does that relate? Is Getz pivoting to building a veteran team in one offseason?
