They keep acquiring cheap guys with no upside at all and no potential trade value.  

Yep, the whole point of this upcoming suckage is to add one year fliers on guys who could turn it around and be traded for a lottery ticket, not old geezers on their last legs.

This is what happens when you don't clean house. Hahn and Williams get fired because they were bad at their jobs, and they just promote someone from the same regime who was also bad at their job to take over.

Oh, but now some of these no upside guys can play defense though. See, its a little different.....

That's not true.  Look at Aroldis Chapman last year.

$3.75 million for Chapman.  Hahn, I mean Getz, just paid a combined $5.8 million for two much worse players.

Nothing has changed.  The Sox are the same as they always were.  The little amount of money they spend in the offseason is spread out amongst a few terrible players that should likely be cut before the end of their contracts.  Awful.

If someone had upside they wouldn't be cheap.

You gotta take the bitter with the sweet as JR might be saying to Getz.

Guys with upside are almost always cheap, key word is "upside" which means their current performance doesn't warrant a high contract.
