Gamethread 8/6: "Taylor" Made
I mean - talking s%*# for sure because I SHOULD. Our team is on the precipice of setting a historic record of shittiness. But Cannon was good. Meh. There's that.

No. Here come the part where they blow a man on 1st/3rd and 1 out. Score nothing. Edit. Now 2 outs. **Edit 2 - Thank God for the wild pitch. Lord knows, can't hit.

Bob: JR, Getz and Grifol meet to get to the bottom of this
Be the White Sox. Get owner, Manager and GM together to "get to the bottom of this" 17 game losing streak. Proceed to lose another 3 games in a row.
-
The streak has reached 21. Raise a glass.
I believe JR owns somewhere around 20%. As for the other 80%+; not sure if any investors actually own more less shares. Point is: JR is the General Partner of the investor group and Chairman of the Board for the franchise. So he calls all the shots. The others, regardless of stake, are just there for investment/return.

What Negative Wouldn't We Believe?
You guys are just being ridiculous. JR is WAY too old for that. Believe me - took 6 months and almost 20 bottles just to get Doug Flutie semi-turgid.....once.

Vargas is 0-8 as a Sox. He fits right in!

Eloy to Baltimore
I'm sorry - still reeling over yesterday's blockbuster vasectomy. We traded Eloy to Baltimore? What did we get? More Crime?

7/30 Sox vs. Royals 7:10PM
And that's a Sox finish. Great job, guys.

Damn - you missed it. We traded Crochet for Ohtani and we're in FIRST now. Where've you been????

7/30 Sox vs. Royals 7:10PM
I can't even believe I'm watching this. Gonna lose again.

7/30 Sox vs. Royals 7:10PM
Vargas in an "impact middle of the lineup hitter", according to Getz. I believe him after seeing his 0-4 at bats.

Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
Nah, with Pale on this one. Dealing Crochet in June would've ben a mistake. They'll probably STILL make a mistake (I have EVERY CONFIDENCE they will), but he's right. He's in the highest value possible. If nobody (actually going for it) trusts him to pitch, fine. Sit on him if you don't get a REAL HAUL. And then there's the offseason. He's got it right (in theory). But then we have JR and Chris Getz so it'll get completely wasted and F'D up.

Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox
Enough. We sent 3 MLB players and got back (2) 19'ish year-olds and a AAAA who has 3 MLB years, 400 ABs, and a .658 OPS. We're f***ed Our GM is an idiot. Our Owner doesn't care about winning, just profit. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GET IT????? We ARE the worst team in baseball. EVER. Just...STFU. It's not trades, it's not coaches, its not even GMs. IT"S THE OWNERSHIP. STOP WASTING YOUR TIME UNTIL THIS CHANGES.

7/30 Sox vs. Royals 7:10PM
Hi Chris. You're right. He's a monster, Cannon didn't have a chance.
-
Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
First of all: Eloy healthy... Quintana was such a good pitcher. So underrated. Would be worth a FORTUNE today. But, Eloy....And then Cease. The ride never ends with this franchise.

7/30 Sox vs. Royals 7:10PM
Cannon gives it up to 5'8 manlet that weighs less than my wife.
-
Grade Getz’s 1st Trade Deadline!
F. Is this serious? Gave up 3 MLB players for 2 18 yos in single A and a AAAA with .658 OPS. Who GETZ think is middle of order. This isn't even Deja-Vu anymore. Got absolutely NOTHING on this trade. The Cardinals looks genius and the Dodgers just dumped TRASH and took a flyer on a physical phenom that they possibly might have the ability to fix (his head). If they do, we look even more inept (imagine going to LA to fix a headcase). We are WORSE off with this trade and anyone who says otherwise isn't being even remotely honest. Text 'FMLFML' for a free sample.

#1/3/15/19/22/30 of Top 30 trade targets Sox
Exactly - plus the points regarding his friendly contract which @CaliSoxFanViaSWsidehammered home (and I didn't feel the need to belabor).

#1/3/15/19/22/30 of Top 30 trade targets Sox
If we're talking about off season trades, I'd 100% agree. But in the context of the TDL, I don't. It was posted earlier that Crochet and Fedde are #1 and #7 respectively in fWAR for the league, so in terms in value NOW - Fedde is more like a #2 or #3 because he's an established SP (unlike Crochet) and available. Getz should be firm about a pretty damn significant package otherwise hold him.
