Great article, which details every recent misstep by Jerry. Imagine buying a team for $19 million dollars that is now worth maybe $2.5 billion and choosing not to be competitive year after year. What an epic loser the guy is.

Do you teach your kids to play fearless, aggressive, selfless, and technically sound (F.A.S.T.)?

This sounds like something Grifol would say, or did he?

Signing guys in the offseason with a clean record versus signing additional free agents after the worst historic start in team history? Yeah, there’s no difference here. C’mon… At least when the Sox had a 0-0 record, it made some sense. But you already knew the answer to your question before you posted this drivel. If you want to argue signing guys to flip them at the deadline then Taylor is still more desirable because he can actually play defense. The fact that no team wanted Pham before the season started already shows you aren’t going to get much for him in a trade unless he tears the cover off the ball when they finally add him to the team.

Sure, but Fletcher looks like a fourth outfielder at best. I’ll take the boom or bust of a 21 year old Christian Mena over a 26 year old fourth outfielder in the long losing years of the sucky Sox. It’s still not as bad as dumping a 22 year old Jose Rodriguez for nothing.

Correction — “It’s going to take a new owner and GM.”

Yeah, but it’s now looking like most of Getz’s acquisitions were so bad, they could barely last long enough on the roster to ensure another year of control for the young guys prior to their callup. That was part of Getz’s goal, but I’m sure he didn’t expect the vets he acquired would be this bad and quite literally DFA candidates after one month. That’s all on Getz, while the smart posters on this forum saw it from miles away, literally when these bums were signed.

Don’t feel bad being a glass half full. Someone has to be positive. I’ve always been a glass half empty guy, but I just wasn’t a fan of any of Getz’s acquisitions of vets that should’ve already retired by now.

Ya know what, I am going to watch them all in their entirety because of your post. I never really sat down and watched them in detail. I was usually watching them while doing something else.

I disagree. I think Grifol lasts until the end of the season. Jerry only eats one year of his deal and they serve him up on a platter as the ultimate scapegoat for this team sucking.

I was never a huge Monty Python fan but I have respect for all the old classics. I was more of a Mel Brooks fan -- Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, History of the World, Spaceballs, etc.

BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT THE SOX ARE WRONG ABOUT THIS STRATEGY?!? Who am I? Haha...

Sure, but it's sad that he could possibly outhit these losers right now.

A Reinsdorf first-year manager or first-year GM signed to a multi-year contract. You must feel like absolute GOLD. Job fucking security for at least 2 years.

They betta trade Fedde cuz the dude's value is gonna tank soona ratha than lata.

Can we question the Sox plan/usage of Crochet yet? I know there is one poster here that I don't want to set off again about this "stupid" argument...

Demote everyone, including Getz.

He’s probably still better than Nicky Lopez. He’s tearing it up for the AAA Braves team. Bring him back! https://www.milb.com/player/leury-garcia-544725

Always looking for the positives. I wish I could be a glass half full guy like you.

He's being saved for the end of the season as the fall guy. Jerry saves money and gets to blame Grifol for everything he and Getz fucked up this past offseason.

Your boy Getz sucks almost as much as every Reinsdorf. Congrats, you win NOTHING.

Then you should hate Reinsdorf and Getz, cuz this was already decided upon last August just like @Kyyle23 said.

You sir, are quite frankly fucking delusional. Did you eat paint chips as a child?
