Sure, but I don’t need to listen to Levine for this to make sense. The Orioles were hit hard with injuries to their rotation.

Thanks for sharing this. I missed all of this news.

Getz is Mr. Glove guy. There’s no way he’s a fan of Sheets. And I can’t blame him either, with Sheets’ bat getting worse over the years. If he can’t do either well, what good is he? A pinch hitter that you pray jacks one out at the right time late in a game? Very limited role and usefulness.

Sheets is sooooo not making the roster.

My friend has a friend in the CPD. Here is the story. Makes this strange occurrence make more sense now. “So she indeed snuck a 25 auto so just little bigger than a 22 handgun inside her fat. She went to adjust the gun at her seat when it accidentally discharged and grazed her and struck her friend in leg. Best part. All of them are CPS teachers. Teacher appreciation night at the cell. Initial cop commander says to stop game. He's overridden by mayor and top cop to not say anything and the coverup begins with the outside bullet theory. Mayor has silenced all cops. They have them on video. Another teacher picks up the gun and runs out of stadium. This fat teacher is best friends with the mayor and is actually lives in suburbs which is illegal for CPS teachers to do.”

His bat has gotten worse over the years but I’m not sure how playing him out of position is to blame. More than likely, pitchers just figured out the massive hole in his swing at the dish. He’s just more AAA fodder that was drafted too high by the Sox.

Well, he’s a lefty but the last time he was a power bat was 2019 with the Brewers. He has never played the outfield in his career. But I will support any move that gets Sheets off of the roster and prevents Grifail from playing him in the outfield.

He has none after the one and only dumbest team in the MLB gave him a manager job when no one else would have.

Most managers will just provide the most obvious Spring Training fluff that that no one will care about. Grifol likes to go the opposite route and spout non-sensical crap that just absolutely pisses Sox fans off.

Exactly why I have no idea Maldonado got $4.25 million and Grandal got $2.5 million.

Luckily, we probably only have one more year of Grifol.

Rinse and repeat. This guy is delusional.

It’s like everyone associated with the Sox intentionally say stupid things to piss off Sox fans.

That’s bottom of the order is about as putrid as it gets.

Good numbers are obviously better than bad but his last 674 at bats were in the inflated PCL. I still have high hopes for him though.

Further proof of why a stud QB means more than all else, and why the Bears need to keep looking for one rather than sticking with Fields.

Yeah, no good free agents want to come to the Sox because of their bad defense. It has nothing to do with Getz offering sub-$8 million dollar a year contracts.

He doesn’t deserve the a minor league salary.

How does Maldonado get $4.25 million?

I was thinking the same at that point.

Trubisky is still better.

Yep, Boras doesn’t give hometown discounts, like Buehrle and Danks were willing to do. John Danks and his younger brother Jordan ditched Boras before John signed his extension with the Sox. It’s likely the reason the extension got done. Danks wanted to extend with the Sox and Boras more than likely wanted to take him to free agency. https://www.chicagotribune.com/2008/06/10/boras-out-of-picture-for-danks-brothers/

Chavez was probably one of the best relievers Getz brought in if you looking at his numbers over that last few years, granted he doesn’t fall off the cliff at age 40, which is entirely possible. He hasn’t yet though.

Location, location, location. GRF doesn’t have it. It looks like the new ballpark will. I love the argument that Sox fans prefer to drive to games, park, and tailgate rather than commute to games and go to bars. The public transportation commute and bar scene at GRF is weak, which is why fans prefer to do the former. This is not difficult to understand.

Oh, I don’t really mean with a terrible team like this one. Mostly with all the Hahn teams when he would spread out millions on a bunch of overpriced relievers and old veteran position players rather than invest in one or two good position players and sign some veteran relievers and backup players to cheap minor league deals. I hope Getz remembers this going forward.
