Lack of oversight, unwillingness to sufficiently invest on the team, insularity resulting in hiring Getz, lack of embracing change such as the use of analytics amongst other issues.

Balta1701 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 There is something special about his appearing in Forbes. One of the go to business journals ripping Reinsdorf as a businessman is pretty ideal, that type of disrespect just has to sting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 This is where Mr Pennywise has been extremely pound foolish. There are hundreds of millions of dollars in franchise valuation sitting on the sidelines because ownership refuses to wisely invest in this franchise instead letting the roof leak and the basement flood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitekrazy Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Yet the sun may also rise again someday for the White Sox. Because baseball’s most intrinsic charm is hope. Hope might take decades. The scary thing is Jerry might still be there. I often wonder if new owners would make some drastic changes in the front office. The GM is an epic fail but yet replacing people is not easy since you would have to lots of interviews. New owners would have to do a ton of research and if they don't it would be worse than Jerry. If spreadsheets are more important than winning then do the planet a favor and stay out of it. Imagine if Getz had to interview for his job. I doubt boasting about the Barons is going to cut it. How could he answer or that "culture" guy as to why players get better when they leave. As farm director is good enough to be on the non interview list. Plus I doubt the blame game would work either.

They also just fired their pitching coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad never hitting coaches or Barfield and his lieutenant would be all over them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the D'Backs fired one of theirs you waste no time getting him. Meanwhile Katz has nine lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
