What players that we assume had attitude problems would have to do with Getz? I don't think there are any. Colas, I guess?

Eh the Sox could compete again if they went the Rays/Cleveland/Brewers route and actually developed guys and then made strategic trades from a good farm system. Sadly the Sox, thus far, have picked neither lane.

Getz is probably in a rental car driving down to Dallas right now. Wheeling and dealing taking phone calls from the carpool lane while being careful because JR didn't pay for comprehensive insurance.

I don't think you know what 'Nuff said means since you say things like this all of the time in every thread.

It also just gives you more flexibility. SS can usually translate to any position pretty well.

Cubs aren't exactly trying to set the world on fire. Their fanbase has every right to be just as mad but they will still fill that dumb place up.

Just go to the Mariners without the Cubs.

They aren't trading Shaw. He is their next fan favorite white guy.

A lot of 21 year olds in the minors ready to have disappointing careers.

Yeah I think he just said it weird.

Yeah I'm taking that.

so JJ still at third and I honestly have no memory of who took over 1st base.

Only thing that concerns me about Johnson is just how good the Lions offensive line is. Is he as good as advertised or is the line covering up a lot of stuff?

Solely for keeping Eberflus, I think Poles pisses me off more than Getz.

They are running laps around the entire league.

Remember when they traded Mookie Betts for literal garbage?

Trading Crochet for future pieces is truly the only way the Sox (and how they operate) is the only way they can get out of this. He pitched every 5 days this year and it was the most miserable season possible.

I mean it's only been one rebuild year so far. 2023 they for sure didn't view it as a rebuild year, as they were 500 the year before and added Benintendi (which, whatever). It just turned out that Grifol happened to be the worst manager imaginable. Next year will also be bad, but you SHOULD start to crawl out of it in 26 and that is when you'd hopefully be looking to add.

Snell going to the Dodgers is probably good for trade market. Will make other NL teams a little more desperate, plus I didn’t love what the Dodgers could offer compared to others.

If there actually is a mystery team, I could see it being the Cubs.

You'd be getting two top 50 prospects along with him, and you can move him for more whenever you'd like.

If it's those two then I'll gladly take Bohm from them.

I'm very confused why people are so upset that the GM has a higher asking price than what he will get on November 26th. You'd be losing your mind if he accepted some offer you deem bad right now.

I think holding Robert for now and hoping for a bounce back is as much as a no brainer as trading Crochet. You aren't going to get anything of great value for him. If you are moving him for another player in a similar spot to him (Lux/Bohm/etc) then I'd at least like to see that person extended for a couple years.

The "leaks" that a lot of teams would like to have Garrett Crochet?
