  1. Maybe Getz is smarter than some people here give him credit for. Smart people are not afraid to hire smart subordinates.
  2. I like that JR said Getz knows the organization and would be a year ahead of an outsider in fixing what's broken. That is a valid reason IMO for the Getz hire. Getz also indicated he would conduct face to face interviews with players and coaches. I believe that indicates a willingness to learn from people who are closer to the problems. When JR first bought the team he signed Fisk which showed the fan base he was serious about building a winner. I suspect that we might see something similar since JR seems to understand the fans frustration.
  3. I live in Southwest Michigan and need to stream the BEARS games. What streaming service would be the best? Thank you in advance.
  4. Got to say...the boys look like they enjoy playing baseball with each other.
  5. I agree with you on Frazier and a lessor extent Andrus.
  6. Are there any veterans that we should care whether they say or go? I would rather watch kids who hustle any day over this lethargic bunch.
  7. With this lineup...how do they ever lose?
  8. Very much looking forward to the trades that will end this nightmare of a season. If new decision makers were doing the deals...it would be worth the pain this season has produced.
  9. I wore a WS t-shirt under my Eloy jersey and topped it off with my WS watch. Seems like I didn't everything possible to avoid such a terrible ending.
  10. Agreed! Hamilton finds a way to be useful. Speed has a way of helping out...especially in those late inning close games.
  11. Haseley has earned the playing time.
  12. I don't know if this is the worst team but it surely is the most underperforming team compared to expectations.
  13. Jake Burger is the bait I have been wanting to use to land Madrigal.
  14. Leury was used too much and played too much. If paid and used appropriately his name would never be mentioned except to be a good guy to have around.
  15. Make up your mind. Madrigal is either worth nothing like so many forum members think or not. Kelly is S**t in my opinion, but others think he's ripe for this year. If Madrigal would have played for the Yankees...half this board would be clamoring for RH to pick him up.
  16. Much better fit than the crapola being mentioned here.
  17. I'm not wanting to release him. I want to use him to acquire a useful piece like Madrigal.
  18. All true. If it's me...I trade him for something like 2nd base or backup catcher. I realize he has great stuff but pitchers who can't find the plate are not my cup of tea.
