Paulie4Pres Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 It's honestly amazing the mental gymnastics a few posters here will perform in order to justify the historically awful season we are witnessing. A season where the White Sox will be in reach of several modern baseball records in incompetence. A season where the White Sox WERE NOT TRYING TO TANK. That's what people don't fucking realize. The White Sox had zero incentive to be the worst team in baseball. There's nothing to be gained. They are just that fucking inept. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Sox had zero incentive to be the worst team in baseball. There's nothing to be gained. They are just that fucking inept. I'm always amazed by the people who laughed at this team in the off-season, and proclaimed that there was no way, no collection of trades and signings that would make this team competitive this year, and now act surprised at every single loss. I think trading your best pitcher in Spring training indicates something akin to tanking. It's silly to pretend that slotting a utility infielder in at 2B, trading off your best pitcher and dropping Maldonado at C was a major push at "competing". But hey! I'm performing mental gymnastics. LOL. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you seemingly know those moves were bad, why do you not blame Getz for making them? Edited June 27 by WhiteSox2023 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. There's no excuse for this team being THIS BAD without intentionally tanking and trying to lose. None. They are worse than pretty much any team that was TRYING to lose, in the history of modern baseball. Even Oakland last season, was not this bad. They are worse than the 2003 Tigers, and I don't think it's even close. This team might not win 40 games(they will sell off whatever they can at some point). They spent a not insignificant amount of money on absolute losers this off-season, in an attempt to be better than last season, and failed spectacularly. They've made more moves than any team in history up until this point, in an attempt to improve the results on field, and failed spectacularly. If you think Getz and management were planning on this team being THIS fucking terrible this season, I've got a bridge to sell you. There's no reason whatsoever to believe this organization has ANY idea what they are doing during this "rebuild". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
