I am so glad Getz is such a wizard of a GM that he signed all these veterans in the offseason to give our prospects a whole month of seasoning in the minors. What a genius!!! So once again, why didn’t Getz just let Jose Rodriguez play in the majors instead of giving him away for cash to the Phillies (a team with a front office with a fucking clue) if he is willing to throw Ramos to the MLB wolves when he currently has MILB stats (.572 OPS) that are just as bad as Popeye’s? Somehow, some way, @WestEddy will find an excuse for this pathetic roster management by Chris “I’m in over my fucking head” Getz. Getz literally burned millions in a fire pit this offseason on awful veterans. Now he is doubling-down and calling up prospects that aren’t ready for the majors. Can anyone deny Getz’s idiocy at this point? Here’s a live feed of intelligent Sox fans watching Getz’s (a.k.a. Joker’s) madness… Edited May 4 by WhiteSox2023 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s Jerry watching… It's really bizarre how JR's front office has literally wasted millions and millions of dollars on stiffs, has-been's, injury prone guys and retreads, yet he hasn't said a word. Yet spend a gigantic amount on a game changing superstar? Nope, we can't have that... it offends his financial sensibilities it seems. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie for Manager Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) Just in. White Sox bring back Gordon beckham. Getz stated, " He really knows the team well, he brings a lot of maturity to the clubhouse, and he still has something left in the tank. Oh, and he only cost us $2,000 for the rest of the year. He will be the first player announcer " Edited May 4 by pmb0928 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s exactly it, he can say he doesn’t believe in escalating salaries with their current approach. It’s all about owning a team like he thinks everyone should. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBWSF Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Ozzie was asked on a pre game show recently what he would do to change whats happening and he said he would bring up the best young players now from the minors. Lets hope Ramos does well if brought up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope Ramos does well if brought up. Yeah, and it’s mainly because it’s quite simply Getz’s last option. He signed a bunch of garbage that he somehow thought would last longer because they could play defense while hoping they would match their career offensive seasons from 3-5 years ago. Getz is a ?. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
