JR is still reeling from that Benintendi signing.

You actually had some to begin with?

Crazy money. Cubs are probably better off in the long run considering their top prospect is a 3B.

Funny how most of the players Getz acquired last year had to sign for half the money or less because they were so bad with the Sox last season. Getz sure knows how to pick em.

Tigers signed RHP John Brebbia to a one-year, $2.25 million contract with a $4 million club option for 2026.

Who is they? I thought Sheets was a decent lefty bench bat and Julks was good enough to be the right-handed side of a RF platoon? Why did Getz cut such talented players?

The Dodgers also acquire a hundred good players to cover for their injuries. The Sox have guys like Touki as a backup.

Jerry cloned himself and can now live forever.

Leave Krusty the Clown alone…

Check your sources again. Benintendi won a GG in 2021, not 2019, and Tauchman never won a GG.

I’d like to see anyone try to refute your point here and try to justify what Getz is doing.

And these veteran signings getting playing time over the Sox own young players (even if they all completely flop) is not going to be a difference maker in the season. It will be a losing season regardless. Which is why it would make more sense just to give the at bats to the young players. It’s like Getz is trying to continuously build a bad team full of mediocre veterans rather than just giving his own prospects a shot. The results will be a losing season either way so what is the point?

Eldridge. One for one swap. Unfortunately, that’s probably not realistic at all.

And he sucked last year after a good 2022 and 2023. He is turning 34 next month. Time changes everything. But I guess this shows us what Getz thinks about Fletcher and Colas. And since you kept ripping adding Taylor last offseason, shouldn’t you think this is a pointless/stupid move again this offseason?

Truer words have never been spoken. It makes zero sense, but the Sox are gonna Sox. Signing washed up vets last offseason worked so well to the tune of 121 losses and not giving young players enough at bats as a result. So let’s employ that strategy again this offseason! And you just know Drury is making the team as well. There quite simply is no fucking plan here.

Correction. The White Sox love their cheap washed up vets. The GM changes but the strategy remains the same.

I always knew you were Getz’s special assistant!

Once Robert is traded, will this be one of the oldest outfields in baseball!? LF Benintendi (turning 31 in July) CF Taylor (34) RF Tauchman (34) / Slater (32)

$10 million? Oh yeah.

We managed to retain a reliever that not one other team in baseball wished to claim, even though he will only earn $190,000 more than the veteran minimum for 2025. That’s a far cry away from the initial excitement about flipping Wilson for another prospect when he was first acquired in the Cease trade. 🤣

No one wanted the guy at $950K. Not even big money for a mediocre reliever. Hell, the veteran minimum salary is $760K! Yet another indictment of our great GM.

Instead of the fluff pieces about guys showing up to ST in the best shape of their life, our guys show up already banged up or injured.

This is the White Sox way.

Hilarious how he blames everyone but Jerry.

Probably not in Jerry’s mind. What will the next location be that Jerry asks for taxpayer money to build a new stadium on?
