  1. To be fair, while I think there is substance to our theory on this, Vargas is Cuban. Edit: As is Ramos. I just think Chris Getz probably subscribes to the Ian Kinsler theory of playing baseball the "right way."
  2. You can tell that they wanted to scapegoat part of this season on him so, so badly. But Vargas is gonna be the future or some s%*#, idk.
  3. Robert, Vaughn and Sosa are the only bats in the lineup rocking OPS above .552 (Ramos). They are also the only 3 hitting above .202 (Fletcher, everyone else is far below .200). Think about that: Robert, Vaughn and Sosa look like bonafide sluggers compared to Vargas, Ramos, DeLoach, Chuckie, Fletcher and Amaya and all six are in the lineup.
  4. They need an announcer that just calls the game! And plays baseball the right way! And TLR definitely knows best! The Tories when this s%*# doesn't work:
  5. Lmao, Korey Lee, Lenyn Sosa and Andrew Benintendi. Chris Getz's favorite players stave off infamy.
  6. Miguel Vargas is leading off the day after Chris Getz said Sizemore will be considered for manager. They are both morons.
  7. What's a little light domestic abuse between teammates?
  8. Chris Getz's favorite baseball publication lays out the argument that the White Sox and JR are now the poster child for the one thing that can ruin the sport: horrendous ownership.
  9. Literally lays out how he was the inflection point, but you have to come in and provide a Bob Dole defense of him.
  10. Based on precedent, he'd acquire a 35-year-old OF in AAA as a "future building block" or some s%*#.
  11. Two thoughts: 1) Other than Jerry, it seems that TLR is the root cause of a lot of strife in the org. 2) @southsider2k5 looks like our theory about the new organizational attitude towards Latinos might hold weight if you read what Olney and Rogers are thinly implying.
  12. I find myself attached to pre-Getz as GM minor leaguers / guys like Robert and Crochet. Yeah, Robert has stunk this year, but whatever, I'm still attached to the guy. Guys that have been around for years — even Vaughn, Sosa and Sheets — it makes me happy when they're successful. I could care less about Fletcher, DeLoach, Berroa, Vargas, Amaya, Zavala, etc. To me, they represent nothing but Getz's hubris. Which probably isn't fair to them, but they're what Getz has tried to sell Sox fans as his justification for being a GM.
  13. Talk about unprofessional! They should ban the scoreboard.
  14. Man, what a great trade by Rick Hahn to get Juan Carela. Getting a possible starter for a rental reliever.
  15. Let's add Jake McCarthy, Robles and Bart. It's like Joc being a Sox player. Add in Romy and Burger, and baby, you got a stew going.
  16. At the end of the day, no matter what the Tories here say, people here love the Sox. They'll enjoy a win at the park because they like going to games and rooting for players that we've grown attached to over the years. We just want Jerry to own an infamous record, especially because he'll always be cited as the reason. The 1899 Spiders were basically made a AAA team. The 1962 Mets were an expansion. The Sox? It's all Jerry and his cronies.
  17. Since NY Times owns the Athletic, this felt like a good home for this profile Here's a gift article for those who want to read it. Some choice quotes from the guys in the 108.
