Getz already won the award for biggest GM failure last year. Everyone’s pitchforks should be sharper already. JR and Getz kick everyone’s dog and this year will be no different unfortunately.

Hopefully the NBA fixes the draft again like they did with Rose to make the Bulls great again. 🤣

They have no true stars, and Levine wasn’t one either. It simply doesn’t work in the NBA. They will continue to stay in NBA Hell (hover around .500) until they luck into a #1 overall draft pick or a star free agent is willing to come to Chicago.

Chris Getz was part of the organization’s lack of talent as director of player development from 2017 to 2020 and assistant GM from 2021 until he was promoted to full-time GM. In the scenario you discussed with SS2K5, an external GM hire would bear no blame for the current state of the organization they are taking over which is why Getz’s performance is worse than others. Since 2017, he was employed in two roles in which part of his job was to develop prospects and help improve the big league roster. Getz was not a brand new external GM hire so if he wants to play the blame game, he can look into a mirror.

It has to top Getz’s list of bad trades. Second on the list must be the Gregory Santos trade. Imagine if Getz comes away with not even one quality major leaguer from those two trades. Drew Thorpe — TJ surgery Samuel Zavala — .641 OPS in A+ ball last season Jairo Iriarte — walks the world Steven Wilson — DFA and went unclaimed with a paltry $1.05 million salary for 2025 Prelander Berroa — TJ surgery Zach DeLoach — DFA and went unclaimed Blake Larson — TJ surgery

Getz just set a record to top countless other GM’s throughout baseball history but he needs to do it twice before being on the hot seat? The sad thing is, I think he keeps his job even if he matches last year’s record.

I love the way you 🧌. 🤣

No, it probably doesn’t. This is JR we are talking about. How long were Kenny and Hahn employed through how many awful seasons?

But Vasil earned it? The loss record pinnacle has already been achieved so what does it matter now?

2030 White Sox — Rebuild III: “These Kids Can Play!”

And one less year of experience and development. Absolutely brutal.

Guys can get them twice so this doesn’t really excite me much.

I remember someone posting that all teams go through this. No way. This is a record setting pace.

I agree, but why doesn’t playing younger players in the outfield than Tauchman and Slater apply then in a tank year?

Apparently, Drury had the option to test free agency if he wasn’t selected for the White Sox’ Opening Day roster and he exercised that right Sunday.

Getz’s roster management is always a roller coaster of hilarity.

I think you missed a word in your post.

Our savior is gone! 🤣 Cutting the dude after he fractured his thumb? Pretty ruthless…

And what happens if his back flares up again?

If Drury was the savior, Sox never stood a chance anyways. A hot ST didn’t change that either.

There’s probably no way we will ever know for sure if the injuries were related. It would just be speculation from here. HIPAA will deny us access to this news and I doubt Getz and the Sox would ever admit responsibility, even if it was their fault.

True. But also, many listeners didn’t want to hear a couple of sports radio co-hosts focusing on their political views over talking sports. The Score has been The Snore due to this for the past 10 years, and Bernstein was the biggest culprit along with Lawrence Holmes to a lesser extent. As if anyone needed more proof that the news media is biased, these clowns made it their job to ensure that it was obvious. Afterall, why would sports radio talk politics… ever?

Bernstein has been a joke ever since Boers retired. It’s not a surprise that he’s been cycled through numerous co-hosts since then.

Small sample size cuz it’s only been 3 months but definitely not trending in the Sox favor compared to other teams.
