The evaluation is the easy part. It's the getting players that don't fucking suck which will take a while./

At least someone finally said it out loud, even if many didn't believe it before.

Assuming they don't have the Clevinger baggage, sure.

Yeah, if he is anywhere near a mid rotation type of starter, teams will pay up for him. All you have to do is look at what pitching was sold for at the last deadline.

I always hear complaining about players being generic and speaking in cliches until they actually speak their minds.

If Getz can convince ownership to bring in one less crappy bench player/ reliever per year and spend that money on player development, scouting, drafting, and the minors in general, Getz is already a better GM than Hahn. The problem is Getz seems to be perfectly willing to waste money on pointless players as he keeps turning over an awful roster, so I don't have a lot of hope. A perfect example is wasting a one year deal on Shaw. That $1.5 million could have fed minor leaguers, hired scouts, and/or more modern development programming.

Yet they launched Sportsvision when the Sox were about as good as could be.

He has a nice grip and slides it right off.

Honestly I really want to see him pitching Charlotte as a prep for a bandbox in Chicago. If he succeeds there, it is a really good sign. Birmingham is a pitchers park. I want to see hitters who can hit in Birmingham and pitch in Charlotte.

He does have a thing against stealing.
