Wonder if we see Hagen, as Guardians have a ton of lefties.

Think of Colson as an NBA player that can get really hot in a game or be a total brick. He can put a team on his back a handful of times each month, but when it’s going bad…it’s very bad

That’s the Dansby comparison that most have made for him. People on this site need to stop thinking there are a lot of .300 hitters still. Colson can be a strong contributor at .216. Hell, Vargas has had a great year and is below .240 now.

What’s wrong with .250 and 20 homers and great SS defense?

I can’t even imagine how much people will dislike Roch when he’s a .250 hitter

It’s just an odd acquisition. Way too KW-esque.

He’s the guy that at least does damage when he does hit the ball. Our outfield’s lack of power is pathetic.

Framber, Melton, Madden, Montero and Jobe/Ryan coming back soon. I would put that on par, if not better, than the WSox

Sure, they have a lot of depth and a lineup that’s thriving. Dingler is a damn star now.

Exactly, if there’s a season next year, he’s your big ticket acquisition. There’s a reason you usually see contending teams go after players doing well during the season at the deadline and not reclamation projects. In a lot of ways, Getz acted like this was a team that wasn’t really in contention.

Aren’t Tigers just as big of a threat now?

8/6 Gamethread: White Sox (Castillo) @ Red Sox (Suarez) - 8:10 PM ADT
He can’t throw his change up anymore. There’s a reason he has struggled so much.

8/6 Gamethread: White Sox (Castillo) @ Red Sox (Suarez) - 8:10 PM ADT
He was fine today. Played good defense and had a few hits. Vargas was the worst player on the field tonight.

8/6 Gamethread: White Sox (Castillo) @ Red Sox (Suarez) - 8:10 PM ADT
Considering the main reason they got him was to give them innings, I have to laugh at the excuses for him only going 4 innings.

It wouldn’t have cost Bonemer. McDougal would have been fine with me, he’s going to be a reliever.

What’s the point of acquiring Castillo if he can’t be competitive against a good team? Also, good luck to him throwing primarily high fastballs during the summer at the Rate

Went cheap and got a crappy player in Bart. Just cause he was better than Quero and Romo doesn’t mean much.

Half their lineup are basically journeyman players. This sweep had nothing to do about payroll

Fedde was doing good as a starter. Not quite sure why they decided to put him in the bullpen. Nothing this week made sense, as Getz really put this team in a bad position .

Terrible loss….our “all stars” killed the team tonight. Coaching staff was very bad.

Pretty obvious this is a transition staff to get them from rebuilding to competent.

Worst hitter I’ve ever seen on Sox to get this many at bats.

Thanks Getz for keeping him on the roster. What an absolutely terrible 4 days
