Getz is such a terrible GM that he passed on several players he could have acquired for a song that would have improved this team. Joey Bart Victor Robles Instead, we are watching Fletcher and Vargas play little league baseball. would it matter who the players are? if you haven't been reading the news stories, Sox are playing with significant strategic disadvantages due to how far behind they are compared to the rest of the league pillar left the Sox and immediately became a decent player roster sucks yeah but they have zero help 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pregame he yelled Flexen has his curve all working. He hadn’t throw a pitch yet. Then he said the Sox were playing the Dodgers. And the said the bullpen has become a team strength. EIther he is just a clueless f***, or thinks his audience is beyond stupid. He doesn't care about either. He's getting paid to pitch a product.

greg775 Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 119 losses. How? Why? Nobody could have ever predicted a team could ever be this bad. Even expansion teams won more games in a season. Jerry is a colossal failure. This almost nullifies the 2005 title. I mean there's still a chance we don't even win 40. Think about that. Jerry ... get some of your money and walk through the crowd at our final home game and give out some 100 dollar bills. My gawd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think Stoney would quit after the final game. Some other team would pick him up in a minute. His partner is amateurish sorry to say. He can stay obviously but Stoney should move on and let him have Gordo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is unbelievable how Sox can't do anything right. Bennitti had his faults but he was never this bad. This situation just symbolizes how horrible this season has been and how there is so little hope for the future. Rebuild? Rebuild? What rebuild?

His recent depression act about watching losing baseball and thinking about retiring was an absolute joke. Then about a week or two later he said he was coming back.

All the praise for the Bummer move like we ended up with some kind of bounty of impacful talent because they were Braves...that was just ATL taking out the garbage and saving themselves a bunch of money on Lopez and Soroka, who they were likely going to cut anyway. Shewmake? Would have been better much better off simply keeping Romy Gonzalez. Shuster has been okay as a poor man's Tanner Banks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recent? Hes teased retirement every year and then come back for the last decade. Probably even longer.

It's like going into a bar wanting a shot of the $500 tequila while there bottles left of the $150 tequila and they try to convince you there's no difference in taste. I think that how your better organizations are with top shelf prospects. They know them better than any rankings or reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
