Chris Getz and his panic of the day club

Think how miserable he was having to wait since last September to have a 2 game winning streak to rub in people's faces.

I hope he took a double dose.

Especially if you ACTUALLY read the entire quote to realize he wasn't talking about a quick rebuild, and that he was talking about quick internal evaluations, which is exactly what has happened as Getz has done nothing but dump internal players.

BEN IN 10 D

If Rebuilding takes time, CALM THE F@#$ DOWN WITH THE WASHED UP GERIATRIC PLAYERS!

For the record, now of the independent Amercan Association Kansas City Monarchs.

And there is ONE person who might...

I would have thought the Billy Hamilton part would have given away the joke...

And then sent down. And then called up And then sent down And then DFAd for Billy Hamilton.

My hometown kid played himself up to 39th and the Rams!

Should have just stopped there.

Whining about whining... is still whining.

I get tired of you carrying water for this stupidity, but here we both are.

Ted Lasso is great. Also a fan of Manhunt and Franklin so far

This. Exactly this. Even a chance at Fletcher being your 5th OF in 4 years or a situational lefty in AA is better than a chance at nothing in 1 year.

Individually they are probably not much. But the whole idea is future talent hording at this stage. Even a small chance at a future is better than no fucking way.

Who and for whom?

I fully expect Montgomery to be called up any day at the rate we are going. Look it is one thing to sign vets as place holders so as to NOT rush players, but the fact that other kids (no matter how marginal, they have a better chance at future value than Rafael Fucking Ortega does) are getting released to make room for this trash, that is a problem. When you KNOW you have no present value, you stop worrying about present value. You start worrying about your future value. Trading a low level guy for a lefty specialist, and then releasing him two months later to make room for a guy who has no future with your team is just stupid. Now you have blown through two potential future pieces (again, no matter how small those odds are) for a guy with no future at all. Why? So you can lose 105 games instead of 110? JFC how stupid can this franchise be?

What were these other offers?

Not freaking panic during the first four weeks of a rebuild?
