It's the Sox we are tallking about. Collins, Vaughn, Madrigal make a big difference. You fail to see the root of the problem.

LOL baseball fans treating draft picks like it's the NFL. Look at the Sox previous picks. It's like drafting Ryan Leaf an Rickey Williams over again. Stud pitchers are nice but only good every 5th day.

I bet they challenge their record next year. I think most fans have nothing against the players because they were never good at baseball. We just want Jerry to feel the pain which probably wont happen. Cutting payroll for 2025 is an example of once again he's into never having a winning culture.. He's isn't alone in this. Baseball has more than its share of bad ownership.

I suggest Getz not doing anymore trading until there is better evaluation.

Bench players for White Sox. Other organizations would be farm system fillers.

That's the Getz plan with all players. But defensively Vargas falls short

Just think you can watch the great Barons on MiLB for the next 5+ years.

Prospect/farm system rankings are overrated. Look up any bust the Sox have. BTW what was Vargas' rating. They are lottery picks. If you can't scout and develop in your own system trying to fix that fault by using other farm systems doesn't really work. It's high risk that yet so many can't see it rarely works. Somehow we think this organization is going to be competitive in a few years What does that really mean? The Pirates and Reds are always competitive until mid July. We've seen that under Williams.

I think teams are holding on to their prospects because there are far more injuries.

what is a casual fan? I'm thinking these are the ones least for at least a decade.

How so when they can't identify those players.

I don't think he wants to be traded.

I want 2 unicorns

Then again it is their job to beat those type of teams. The Rockies made it more difficult for the D'Backs and put the Cubs out of it. You play to win every game because sucking in April and May my look even worse Sept. "Plenty of baseball left" is the wrong attitude coming from a manager.

Somehow we believe this over maybe he just isn't good at baseball.

Another bad baseball owner

Go Tigers. I wanna seem them make it to the post season.

I think that is a bigger lie than getting better faster.

This is a recipe for another Getz trade disaster.

We know the feeling

I go with a 200 loss team

Where are they gonna get those?

I call it trading your better players for #MakeBirminghamBetter.

Not if Reinsdorf lives that long

Wow this thread is starting to go down hill. I tend to ignore media that are Grifol apologists. I don't care what he inherited he was bad and not management material. He was highly recommended by Getz to begin with. Sure he was highly recommended but one player in the Royals organization said he was a kiss ass. It was obvious. Funny how he commented about things he saw from the Royals dugout when becoming manager. Did anyone realize he is use to 100 loss organizations. So the problem with the hire to begin with is getting someone from a habitual losing organization.
