I get that, but as a Sox fan, I hope Getz doesn't cave in too much. They have to hit on these trades, or they are going to be bad for a long, long time.

I kind of like this guy. Wanted the Sox to sign him when he was a free agent really bad.

2021 he would have been in the minors. 2022 he was injured, and last season he was available for about 20 innings. He wouldn't be making 4-5 million now, and he would have at least 2 years less service time.

It got him a major league paycheck right away, and with his surgery, he would have made nothing. He has more money now than he would have had if the Sox made him a starter on day 1.

They usually get a little kicker. Crochet isn't getting jack. And if he is traded to a playoff team and is healthy, he will pitch in the playoffs without an extension.

I don't think he has a leg to stand on here. He's under contract. If his team is in the playoffs, he's going to refuse to pitch?

At least Cease sucks. No hitter. 2 hits 31 K's his last 22 iP.

At least they are losing FAST. If trailing after 6, the game is ova.

This development Pedro always talks about is so fake. Right now, the only 'develpmental" position players are Lee, who Pedro tried to keep off the field as much as possible in the first half before his broken toy was taken away. The other is Baldwin, who is sure to be in Charlotte soon. The rest are vets they hope play better, but they have already shown, the staff can't help improvement along.

This is exactly right IMO. And it has been obvious for well over a season.

I'd wish they would at least do something minor today. It's going to be tough making 5 or 6 or 7 trades in a day or so, especially if a couple are rather large.

There probably isn't an organization in the world other than this one that would let this crap stand and do nothing. I don't care if Getz has been here less than a year, proof is he sucks. Are they waiting for Pedro to be 100 under .500 to launch him? It's insane they are still around.

Is 1970 the last time they were 50 games under .500 at any point during the season? If Crochet and Fedde were more like their pre-season projections, they might not have 20 wins now. South Side, staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad up!

Scriffen thought that tied the game.

I was just going to post this same thing. They are playing with fire. Crochet and Fedde should not start another game until after the deadline. You probably can't get away with sitting Robert, but I'd make him the DH for a week.

I don't see what they gain by adding he elected not to push it Pedro's take is weird. They cleared him but expected this to happen?

How does he have the money for this project but needs to state to give him billions for the other?

It is really amazing this dope doesn't get canned. The amount of games they lose that they should have won, and even could have won, is amazing. It just keeps happening. Hire someone who demands victory. They would absolutely still suck without Pedro, but they would be better.

As of now, the Cubs may be drafting in front of the White Sox.

Yes, since Mike Illich died, their spending has taken a blow.

What he promised the Tigers, he gave the White Sox. Stone gets vacations of almost as many games. It's just not as noticed becuase it comes in stretches, where Jason's would be once or twice a week for a while. I think the games missed thing was just an excuse.Isn't it good publicity the voice of the White Sox is doing national games and College football and basketball. IMO, it came down to a relationship between Jason and Brooks that apparently disintegrated, with a little JR not being a fan of Jason thrown it.

I think Luis Robert in a good line up would be a sight to see.

Probably. Looking deeper, Clevingers rehab time is up, and Moncada is supposedly having some physical issues.

Maybe they are cutting bait.

Probably not, but he has as recently as last year. And all you are going to get for Pham is a lottery ticket.
