From what I have heard from him over the years, Stone absolutely loves steak, hates all vegetables, and eats his hot dogs plain. Someone posted this before, but he literally has the palate of a child. I also thought it was pretty obvious that Benetti was eating all the different food from the concourse as a marketing deal. It sure seemed to be planned.

“SOUTH SIDE SAMURAI!!!”

An annual White Sox tradition.

Pun intended? Ruthless…

Is there any game footage out there of this actually happening? I know that Benetti ate during some broadcasts, but I thought the “sloppily” or “disgusting” part was just some comments that Jerry and/or Brooks Boyer relayed back to him at some point, which may or may not have even been true? Sports MockeryThe White Sox Told Jason Benetti He is "Disgusting"As if the earlier details of Jason Benetti's departure weren't egregious enough, these next details are even worse.

Wait, weren’t Tauchman and Slater considered good acquisitions by Getz just one year ago?

That’s a shame…

Yeah, let’s see how fast he hits some more homers once he is forced to use dry TP and get paper cuts on his chocolate starfish.

At least they avoided Beavis.

Somewhere, @vilehoopster is still telling himself that Dominguez’s save percentage is still good.

He needs rehab games still, doesn’t he?

Troll us with our former pitcher.

He’s no Bruce “Cy” Chen.

I have been wondering why he is so bad considering his stuff. Just way too many walks.

Jerry was probably dry-heaving when he signed off on Benintendi’s 5/$75 million contract. 🤣 It will be interesting to see what he does with Murakami.

Guardians of the Getzy for sure… @southsider2k5TM

So you just randomly brought up Alonso and Schwarber’s contracts in the same post for no reason at all? Scattered unrelated thoughts.

Yeah, “guaranteed” would seem to indicate this clause was not included, but who knows?

Someone really needs to photoshop this into a meme. New banner? Getz as Star-Lord, with WE and Cali as Gamora and Rocket Raccoon? 🤣

I wasn’t referring to Korey Lee not getting claimed. I was referring to posters who said it wasn’t worth signing McGuire over just playing Lee because it wouldn’t make a difference. I know @Look at Ray Ray Run said that.

Specific clauses like that usually aren’t reported anywhere so I have no idea where this Joe Binder dude of “Sox on 35th” got it from.

How is that in anyway related? People want the Sox to spend money on good players, not sign crappy backup catchers for $1.2 million when they don’t need to. Go back to the McGuire signing thread. Most posters called this.

Interesting. Never heard of that clause. It’s discussed in this article: “To that end, sources say, some clubs are asking the pitchers to sign a 45-day advance-consent form. Such requests can only be made to players with five or more years of major-league service. If the player agrees, the club can terminate his contract during the 45-day window for any reason except injury, and pay him only for the amount of time he spent on the roster. Veterans who provide advance consent generally lack leverage.” It would make sense that they cut McGuire now if the clause was included when they signed him because it has been around 35 days since he was signed on March 22nd.

$1.2 million for 11 games and 34 plate appearances. Dude earned $109K per game. How the guy wasn’t signed to a minor league deal is strange.

Best waiver claim Getz made over the offseason, even though it was a stupid risk to DFA him in early February. Luckily, no other team claimed him.
