Outcomes are are the result of processes. We're privy to Getz organizational processes and they've been excellent. He's completely overhauling the organization and it's going to take some time. Was he using any of these can't fail "processes" when he ran the Sox minor league system? Players seemed as unprepared as ever to my eye. I bought into the Pedro Grifol processes when he was hired, and was made a fool. I'm not buying what I hear in a softball interview.

It looks like he took his experience there and decided to overhaul the system. Obviously he identified many flaws. Recognizing the flaws and having the ability to make changes are different things. In the past, he had to go through Rick, Kenny and Jerry and it's very apparent that Rick and Kenny no longer had a functioning relationship, so I doubt getting anything done was even possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's circle back to this, because I'm a little confused as to why you're using such corporate jargon for a baseball team. Sports is literally all about outcomes, but it's a bit concerning that you don't seem to understand that. Anyway, we can table this for now, because you're going to follow up with some strange logic like "Well, the excellence is showing itself by creating more opportunities for success to rise to the top."

Getz is the only person in the organization who knew what he was doing. Mike Shirley was hired by the old regime, and seems to be part of the decision making team, now. I guess he sucks, now, too.

Are they all strings about the Front Office speaking positively about the future? I can't imagine being continuously surprised that a corporate spokesperson doesn't sound like a drunken, angry fan cloaked by the anonymity of the internet.

Look, being close to people in power isn't impressive to me. Being able to discern when you are being used for your audience, vs remaining alert and objective in that situation, is. Repeating all of the same lines we heard through Kenny's time, and then Rick's time, without having a healthy skepticism, is the definition of wildly creepy. Also, sorry I hurt you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it will actually wake you up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago As a fan I don't mind Getz. He seemed to be a good speaker/leader during the few minutes I watched before having to turn off the podcast cause of the annoying announcer on the left. I wish Getz well and I think he does want to win after hearing his comment on Sox fans wanting to win now. Getz-ie (I'm sure he was called that as a player cause it seems everybody is an 'ie' at the end of their name in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
