He did? Or is this sarcasm?

It’s funny this even evokes a thread, considering we all know the Sox will never be the team that signs him.

Campbell as a centerpiece of a Crochet trade would be so familiar and a Getz-like move. If Campbell fails to hit in the majors, he could become our Vargas Part II that can’t hit or play defense.

Coaching and the OL is the ultimate problem but yikes, give me Saquon Barkley over D’Andre Swift and Nate Davis. Guess who cost more? Gotta love the “THANK YOU GIANTS!!!” chant by the Eagles fans as Barkley is being interviewed in the postgame show. Poles needs to be on the hot seat at this point. He recognizes star players about as well as Getz. Keeping Eberloser around for another year and hiring Waldron should only give him one more season to prove himself as GM. And Kevin Warren has done absolutely nothing. Poles worried more about adding a ton of offensive weapons (Keenan Allen and Swift, LOL), while thinking a piece of garbage makeshift OL could protect long enough for a rookie QB to sling it around. Poles is a dipshit just like the rest of them. He would have been better off acquiring as much OL as he could and played Roschon and Herbert at RB and less Allen at WR.

Can you provide a link? I usually buy the cheapo plastic flat square antennas when they are $5 bucks online.

Someone has to milk a Chicago sports media job. It may as well be a boring old fogey. He thought about asking hard-hitting questions back in his 30’s, but then decided it would be a better idea to milk an easy career into his 70’s.

Agreed, AJ’s beard is pretty gross if you watch him on Foul Territory.

The point remains. The Dodgers still know better than the Sox which players to throw in a trade that they won’t miss. Meanwhile, the Sox thought they were striking gold with these guys, just like Jake Eder from the Marlins. The Sox thought they acquired two rotation starters, a closer, and a big bat in these trades. 🤣

I say no to that garbage as well. Lux makes absolutely zero sense for the Sox being a mediocre 2B with only 2 years of control left before he hits free agency, all while the Sox are pretty much guaranteed to suck. Which is probably why our awful GM will trade for him — because it makes no sense.

Yep, the Dodgers know exactly who to dump… Vargas Nastrini Leasure

Bwahahaha, you’re right. I literally copied and pasted those two Iowa channels straight from their website two hours ago when I responded to your post and now both Iowa channels are instead listed as “Coming Soon”. https://chsn.com/info/ How in the hell do you f*** that up? This is truly a shitshow. 🤣

We heard all about how Cease was going to net a huge haul and how Fedde was going to net a top 100 prospect, as well as a lesser prospect or two. So far, Getz’s returns for his larger trades have been mediocre at best. I guess we shall see…

Moncada, hurt again…

Here’s the article… “Garrett Crochet to draw in big haul for White Sox“

You can’t get either channel where you are? Any idea if anyone is getting them throughout your state? Des Moines, IA: KDMI, 19.4 Cedar Rapids, IA: KWKB, 20.5

The reality of Getz getting his ass played like a fiddle in the majority of his trades.

If Abreu is the headliner, I don’t think the Sox get a single one of the Red Sox top four prospects. It will be two or three more prospects after those guys.

And reality slaps Sox fans right in the face, cold and hard… Getz would be okay with a headliner that will turn 26 next season. Meanwhile, some posters wouldn’t trade Crochet straight up for what will be a 21 year old Jackson Holliday with true star potential.

🤣 Getz + OnlyFans = Getzlyfans?

Famous last words. This is a signature worthy quote.

I enjoy the irony that we know the Sox are going to trade Crochet because he will only be here for two more years [and Jerry won’t pay him], but let’s go ahead and acquire a mediocre infielder that is under contract for only two years. This is gearing up to be yet another offseason of completely baffling moves by our wizard GM Getz.

Yep. If Getz had a shot at a franchise player, a new young face for his crappy team, he would jump at it in a second. Especially for a pitcher with two years of control that everyone and their grandmother knows that Jerry won’t pay for. The Orioles wouldn’t even make the offer.

This. You worded it better than I could explain. I seriously doubt we could get back “an A-ball position player/rotation arm PLUS Gavin Lux.”

I wouldn’t exactly call them “legitimate” prospects (just semantics I guess), but I agree that they could get back another guy like Batista. However, I don’t agree that they could get Lux back for their international slot money.
