Isn't the converse of pointing out over and over and over and over and over and over again that we should appreciate the improvements from 2023-25 and start Getz tribute threads after every victory??? Does that bring equal amounts of happiness? Why would your personal happiness possibly be correlated to how strangers on the internet follow their team? It would like getting upset with ws2023 over his PCA fandom. Pointless. But it's kind of cute...in a twisted sort of way.

Out the window? Defenestration? If those were Sox starts he'd be in the Second Half HOF compared to Castillo's/(aka Shields') 9.31 more serviceable ERA.

The only one that be “STROKIN” is you to the poster of Getz on the ceiling above your bed.

That’s apparently not the way it works anymore. This article does a decent job of explaining it, specifically the section titled “Waivers”: https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-roster-changes-after-deadline-free-agency-trades/

Get back to me when you're ready to admit the White Sox developed dudes that you stroke it out the window to their first two starts with another team.

Why hasn't JR given him an extension yet? Did you also thank the Bears' front office?

Get back to me when Castillo has his second good start.

When you've developed all of them to be All-Stars, it doesn't matter. I join you in thanking Chris Getz in being so great at his job.

You need to go back and read the series of posts again, because you apparently don’t get the joke either.

A part of being a good GM is not only knowing what MLB players to trade for but also which prospects you shouldn’t give up. I also never called Adams an ace, but being better than Castillo right now wouldn’t be difficult and that is now two good starts in a row for Adams. I said he would look like an ace compared to Castillo’s starts with the Sox.

Chris Getz did such a good job developing prospects, even the scrubs he trades will be aces on other teams. You better get used to it. Weird that through all the arguments in 2024 nobody was exclaiming, "Getz didn't deserve to be made GM. He never developed anyone....except that Mason Adams. That 14th round pick is going to be something!!!"

Dude, if every move is a disaster, why do you follow? If we're all so damn thick, why do you keep pointing out over and over and over and over and over and over that every single move is a catastrophe?

No, he’s really not. Sad because it’s so obvious. 🤣

Already better than Castillo...except for fake Cincy lineup Mason Adams received a no-decision on Sunday against the Braves, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over five innings pitched.Adams struck out five in only his second big league start. The right-hander was acquired from the White Sox in return for Brenton Doyle at this summer’s trade deadline. He missed all of 2025 while rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. Adams is off the fantasy radar given his prospect profile, with half of his starts coming at Coors Field. He draws the Cardinals at home next time out...

Mason Adams with another nice start on the road against the Braves. His fastball leaves a few MPH to be desired but some of the Braves hitters’ swings at his breaking ball are hilarious. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/824876/video/mason-adams-strikes-out-five-over-five-innings

Don’t look now but Mason Adams just had another solid start against a good team in the Braves on the road. Perhaps Getz didn’t need to give up anyone of value for a viable starting pitcher for the rest of this season and the future.

And that could be the difference, a Wolkow here, a Zavala or Iriarte there, it's the current #15 system but the true quality depth that would headline a trade beyond Bonemer/Roch/Carlson is almost non existent. Hagen, Schultz, S.Smith, Oppor and McDougal have all lost various degrees of value during the last twelve months.

I think this is what the Bridgeporters will actually be able to muscle. It’s less about killing the project and more about throwing a wrench (or two, three, etc.) into Amtrak’s gears. If the residents are actually capable of delaying this project, I’m sure Ishbia will grease their palms. He/his firm is the one designing the maintenance facility, after all, so sound and light barriers can certainly be arranged if needed.

Yes, ETFE roof paneling and a stellar temperature regulating system is supposedly what’s going to prevent that stadium from turning into a greenhouse. Honestly, I think they can pull it off (for the right price at least).

At least they had an exciting run to the playoffs in 2024...and their late season collapse last year was entertaining, in a way.

Like Mets fans?

Colson has heard all of the advice from those with major league credentials but from this fan's perspective, it looks like Colson keeps falling victim at the plate to the same pitches/pitching patterns. If he gets hot though, he can carry this team.

Chase Meidroth.

That's what happened in Houston. They invented Astroturf to help that situation since when the roof panels were painted, the natural grass started to die off.
