If he were ready for the show starting his clock might be of concern, but he is clearly not ready yet.

Yes, let's rush the kid who is clearly not ready for the bigs. Clearly Getz is a sound decision maker and no one should question his (lack of) GM acumen...

IDK, *NOT* Nicky Lopez leading off? This part. They all suck, I know, but in no world should Lopez hit above 8th, even on this historically bad team.

Sounds like a man ready to hang them up and ride off into the sunset. It would be a welcome change if Gordon Beckham weren't waiting in the wings...

Welp, there goes any inkling that Sizemore is smart about lineup construction, or that he has the autonomy to fill out his own lineup card...

I really don't understand your crusade to defend Getz. Most of the holdovers from the Hahn era have sucked, true, but so have most of Getz's moves to supposedly improve the 2024 roster. Both of these can be true. But to think that Getz bears no responsibility for where the 2024 White Sox are is absurd.

One single bad move in a vacuum isn't what sunk this team by 20+ games from the 101 loss team of 2023, it is the cumulative effect of many. Did Moldy sink the 2024 Sox alone? No. But did Moldy + the multitude of other mistakes Getz has made in 10 months on the job? 100% yes. Getz took a 101 loss team, reshaped the roster, and turned it into a 120+ loss team. How some think he bears no responsibility for that is baffling.

Except for the kids part.

Its hard to squint and see more than 3 wins the rest of the season.

I think they would have finished better in 2021 and had a more favorable 1st round matchup. Would they have advanced? Who knows. I also think they would have been better than .500 in 2022, but would they have been good enough to make the post-season? Hahn's rebuild had so many holes and the lack of depth still would have haunted them. If anything, I think Hinch would have delayed the inevitable collapse. But I think we would still be facing a similar fate to where we find ourselves now.

Why would Shumacher jump from one dumpster fire to an even bigger dumpster fire, to work for a worse owner running the worst org in the sport, when he will be one of the most in-demand managerial candidates this winter?

Can he go 10 innings? It’s the only shot they have with this pen…

Finding new lows is the only thing they excel at.

Oakland is bad, but they have way more talent than this Sox roster. I have faith in the streak.

I’m going to guess they’ll be the fastest ever to 100 losses. It could be a mere two weeks away.

Have to have a grasp of the material first

Dave Sims made mention on the Mariners broadcast. It’s such rare futility that the baseball world can’t help but take notice.

I think they make him wear it until the off season then axe him as the fall guy. It’s the only rationale as to why he’s still employed.

Twenty! Streaks Never Say Die!!

You know it won’t. It’s Montoyo or a promotion from within the org.

Let history stain JR’s name forever.

Is anyone surprised by that?

If they are going to be this bad, might as well be memorable.

I’m rooting for the streak
