Yes, bought unwisely unfortunately.

This trade deadline was probably half of Getz’s next offseason and spending.

Some people posted this in the original trade thread. It was eerily similar considering Castillo’s age. Shields was one year older at 34 when he was acquired compared to Castillo (33). The Sox have historically never realized that players don’t improve with age. 🤣 For my buddy @hi8is…

Who wouldn’t undo those trades and take Boston Smith and Mason Adams back right now? Put Adams in the rotation right next now instead of Castillo and have either Hays or Pereira over Doyle. Are the Sox better or worse?

It’s funny cuz he was focused so hard on only acquiring players with additional years of control. Now it’s looking like you wouldn’t want these players for additional years, and there would be better players available in the offseason. 🤣

That was some truly stinky stanky bp action.

I’m 6 beers deep and about to play some Golden Tee with my son. Not at all. Meanwhile, you will be seething about this Sox loss all night and looking for the next “negative” poster to attack. 🤣

Probably the second best season of his career.

Yeah man, totally. 🤣

Mets get the field goal to seal the game.

Trust me, I don’t. 🤣

Yes, that was the one trade everyone universally thought he nailed and then Brazoban gets here and blows worse than Seranthony.

The Cubs are 11-7 since the trade deadline. That’s a .611 winning percentage. Over a full season, that would project to 99 wins. I’m not upset at all but like I said, your takes absolutely suck.

What does that matter at this point? Things change. Your arguments don’t make much sense. @fathom literally proved you wrong and you come up with some nonsensical argument.

Oops.

The point of the trade deadline is to actually improve your team. Sorry.

Not at all. They have a better record than the Sox and have better competition in their division. I don’t even know what your argument is here. 🤣 It’s just your same gimmick that you always have. When the Sox are losing or lose, you take out your frustrations with the Sox on other posters. It’s sad. Another poster on this site does the same pathetic thing.

QFT.

You mean the team with the best record in baseball? The Cubs are about to be 75-55. What losers! They aren’t competing with a bunch of sad sack sub .500 teams in a pathetic division. Your takes are garbage.

Cubs owned the deadline. Every single one of Getz’s moves was an epic failure.

More like which team is the threat to finish around .500 and get swept out of the first round. 🤣

There was a chance that Castillo, Brazoban, and Bart would be good acquisitions. The Doyle trade was ridiculously stupid from the start and never made sense. But Bart got injured quickly and the rest have sucked.

Getz’s trade deadline acquisitions sure have turned into trash quickly.

Bold statement — Adams would have been a better addition to the Sox rotation than Castillo and would have cost nothing.

Clutch Benintendi?
