The Mighty Mite Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 (edited) This season is beyond a nightmare, eventually they might make a movie about it, will be scarier than The Exorcist. Edited July 27 by The Mighty Mite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More wasted JR money but he's OK with handing that out to stiffs, has-been's and injury prone guys. But give 25 million to a franchise changing player like Bryce Harper? Oh no, can't do that...it offends his sense of fiscal responsibility! ? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 (edited) Great signing. Didn’t eat innings. Didn’t bring anything back in a trade. Edited July 28 by Bob Sacamano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Par for the course for the Sox FO. In the meantime, Dylan Cease just threw a no hitter, Padres getting more bang for the buck with Cease.

Getz is awful. No one wanted him last year, and yes I know about his contract and buyout but the Sox could’ve eaten it if they wanted to trade him. Also, take a look at how Jake McCarthy is doing, whom Getz and Josh Barfield chose Dominic Fletcher over. These guys are terrible at their jobs. They hit on one guy — Fedde — congratulations. If he isn’t traded for a starting position player it won’t have meant much. Edited July 28 by WhiteSox2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So insurance covers it in this particular case. You want me to list all the stiffs, has-been's, never-was's and rehabbing clowns they have had to actually pay for the last decade? I'd be happy to do so, the list is quite lllooonnnggg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares? They got nothing for him in return in a trade, which was the entire point of signing a flip candidate like him two years in a row. No one wanted him last year cuz he may have beaten his girlfriend, and the Sox signed him already knowing that.

Exactly. They lost 100 games with him last year and they are going to lose 100+ games this year. JR seems to have no problem throwing money down the toilet on guys who clearly are done but it seems to personally offend him to hand out a mega-contract to a potential franchise changing talent. It literally makes no sense at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
