Velus made sure we don't escape the White Sox experience

At least they got Punt God?

Oh for f***'s sake

Golden Domers and more: CFB 2024/25 thread.

Husky if true. -
I cannot tell you how much that deal is loathed by New Yorkers.

I'll speed run the discussion 1. He might if we had Jake McCarthy, Joey Bart and Victor Robles for dirt cheap instead of Fletcher, Maldonado/Chuckie, and, I guess Sheets is the odd man out at this point? 2) Yeah well Barfield made the call on McCarthy vs. Fletcher and Robles + Bart were old, busted prospects. Romy is 27-years-old. 3) The Sox should take fliers on guys who have prior success / big time talent, but have failed elsewhere. 4) Like former 6 WAR All-Star shortstop Nicky Lopez? Or Top 40 prospect Vargas? 5) Waste of money when Romy is cheap. Same for Maldonado, Brebbia and Tim Hill. We could have kept Declan Cronin around. 6) Well, Getz is cleaning house of pro scouts who make bad recommendations. 7) Why did he keep them in the first place? Or let Tosar recommend Vargas? 😎 This is where someone else hops in

But then we'd have missed out on Nicky Lopez
-
Modern front offices won't care because they'll use data, advanced metrics, etc. Since the Sox are the ones selling him, we basically just remove the Rockies from the situation.

Why in God's name can they not format the fucking photo correctly by now?

I thought about that quote and it made me realize: Paddy had to work under unfair restrictions put in place by JR, Kenny, Hahn and Getz. They should fire Getz and make Paddy the GM so he can do a better job.
-
It really comes down to this: If Generic General Manager was brought in instead of Getz, would fans want Getz retained or would they want him canned along with Paddy, Haber, Pedro, Tosar (who apparently got to weigh in on trade deadlines) and some scouts.
-
Unless I have an untimely death, I plan on my fandom outlasting JR's ownership and Getz's employment.
-
Aiming pretty high, I see
-
They might have accidentally paid a top of the rotation pitcher $18M while he played for a contract.

Jerry thihjs "if you build it they will come" applies to stadiums, not a contender.
-
Let's make it hurt more! Add Tatis, Semien and Machado to make it hurt more. This team is so fucking stupid.
-
It's cause the stadium is also a punching bag. Jerry just somehow missed the memo on public funding for stadiums no longer being en vogue.

Chasing Records — 121 losses, modern MLB record
Quin replied to Paulie4Pres's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Something something baseball IQ something something good at defense something something pitchers want to play for. -
Cause only Chris Getz could only take a year to recognize this and fire them. JR told us so.
-
Cause Touki Time can be fun. It can also be really bad.

Thank you for the highlights @Autumn Dreamin and Future Sox

For what it's worth, the Seby back-and-forth between WS2023 and WestEddy is cause he was propped up as a Getz developmental win months ago, because he was bat-first coming up the system then got better at defense.
