JoshPR Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 8 minutes ago, South Side Hit Men said: Until 2024 rung in, thought Getz would bring in a few good players and flip Cease for a couple prospects and a decent AAA starter plus reliever to plug in now. After the Maldonado and Mena calls, really lost confidence. The haul for Cease was fine, but definitely won't help 2024. Think Bannister and a few others can help players develop / adjust, but the dearth of talent seems as though 2027 could be the earliest to expect .500. Can see Jerry nuking payroll like he did the last half decade at Comiskey Park (1986-1990), perhaps a $60M-$80M payroll per year until 2029. Guys that is Jerry's plot. He's gonna make attendance drop so bad he can use that to move the team. It's only gonna get worse. This mother Fucker has sucked 44 years out of Chicago. Time to say screw you jerry 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really felt good about this trade. I thought, while still below average, that the Sox defensively and somewhat offensively would really improve in RF. But Fletcher has looked awful. I know it's early, but he looked awful offensively in spring ball. Pillar has been every bit as bad. RF looks every awful, just like aways.

Highland Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Usually during a losing streak, you can assume a team will come out of it somehow. But I don't see this offense doing much of anything this year. Besides Robert, and maybe Vaughn on a good day, there is nothing in this lineup. We will see many more boring games like this one. And, of course, many losing ones. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This clown will be out a month. What a total complete waste of talent. The record for the most losses to start a season in Sox history is 10 set in 1968. These stiffs and buffoons have a chance to equal that mark, which would at least end the season early. Three straight one run losses and Hill doesn't look like he can get anybody out, but hey he works cheap! Edited March 31 by Lip Man 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking Getz runs things through Tony to get the yea or nay, or both go to Jerry for his call. Also thinking the current online org chart is a typo, as Kenny was EVP when Tony reported up through him (or more likely around direct / dotted line to Jerry).

And, of course, many losing ones. I could see Robert the only .800 + OPS, perhaps one or two of the three (Eloy, Moncada, Vaughn) cracking .760, and then a couple guys maybe hitting .720 + (Colas, Grossman and/or Sheets). Everyone else is a reserve or AAA player on even a .500 team. If they were smart, this would be managed as a complete and utter teardown, but see them continuing to pretend and perhaps delude even themselves about the fact the farm system might not be bottom 5 anymore, but the organization as a whole certainly is when looking at talent in their 20s.
