Chris Getz Roster Transaction Tracker


Recommended Posts

Now that we have reached Opening Day, the lists below track 40 Man Roster transactions effective with Chris Getz' hire (interim 8/23, permanent 8/31/23).

Would be interesting to know the last previous season, if ever, the White Sox have changed over half the 40 man between the final game of the previous season and opening day the following season.

I will try to update the roster changes either annually or twice annually (end of season and start of following season) until Rick Hahn’s entire 40 man roster is purged. 

Heading into Opening Day, Getz has added 24 players to the 40 man roster.

Only 19 of the players who remain on the 40 Man Roster (16) or 60 Day MLB IL (3) were added by Rick Hahn (see subsequent post).

I see this as more of a long term project given the lack of depth of talent in the entire organization.

Beyond continued development and acquisition of prospects over the next few years, the keys will be whether Getz will be effective in reshaping the organization including player development, and whether Jerry will spend any money or just go into bottom of the league payroll mode like he did from 1986 until the end of the old park. He didn't lift payroll much even with record attendance the first two years of the park, but did raise it in time for 1993, so several years after he started demanding a new stadium.

The two key improvements I see in Getz over Hahn are that he is smart enough to realize that defense is important and that he needs to acquire as much pitching talent as he can because many will obviously bust.  Hahn didn’t give a crap about defense and he also thought his work was done once he found 5 legitimate starters.  He never accounted for injuries.  However, I am also not a fan of what Getz apparently values in position players so far.  It reminds me too much of Kenny and his love for “grinders” over talent.  For this team to ever be in competition again, it needs good players with more than just leadership and defensive skills.

See this as more of "I need to cut $55M from payroll this year and field 26 players" type of roster construction, but they will need to acquire/develop talent if they are to be competitive in the future.

The Sox will need to DFA or 60 Day IL 1 or 2 more players in April. One for certain if they will promote Nastrini to the rotation and 40 man as expected.

The second if they plan to bring Grossman up. At this point Fletcher or Pillar can go to Charlotte to accommodate Grossman. Sheets is redundant as well, but he was giving out hot dogs yesterday, so think he is staying up as he has been since 2022.

Sox will be good if Getz and or Grifol don't cling to these veterans they brought in, but merely have them here as placeholders for better options.

I did the payroll math a few days ago and came up with the same as you.  They went from $181 million opening day payroll last year to $126 million opening day payroll this year.  Dropped $55 million.  Crazy.

Getz is going to get a nice Christmas bonus from Jerry at the end of the year.

Here are the remaining 19 players on the 40 man roster plus IL List left from the Rick Hahn era (through August 22, 2023), which we can track until the last man standing.

More will be added as new minor league players are added to the 40 Man Roster over the next several years, but they will be Chris Getz additions to the 40 man roster.

Deivi Garcia is the answer to the trivia question as Rick Hahn’s last MLB roster player acquired before Tony’s Twi-Night of the Long Knives 8/22/23.

Hahn acquired one more player, Minor League player Travis Swaggerty, after the Deivi Garcia claim, on August 15, 2023, one week before he met his fate. Travis was was released by Chris Getz on October 10, 2023, and later signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Agreed, so I updated the thread title to transaction tracker for accuracy.

Will track snapshots of the 40 man roster at year end and opening day. 

Will also track removals of Hahn’s remaining 19 players (16 active, 3 on 60 Day MLB IL) on the 40 man roster as they occur, until there are no players left.
