Because rushing players doesn't affect their development?

But if they already have them longer and/or cheaper that does have value.

Well Getz for starters. Paddy, Shirley, Haber, Hostetler also come to mind right away.

If you find the ability to do a key word search "creepy", I think you are telling on yourself more than anything. Being afraid of you own words isn't a good thing.

Apparently so since you keep circling back to it like a key word search is some evil magic in 2025. Maybe it will actually wake you up a bit.

Last I knew it was up to half of a year's pool, in increments of 250k. I think the speculation was that the Sox had a couple of million left with back of the envelope math.

I am sorry I hurt you, and apparently broke you.

Some meme's will never die.

ALL THA CATCHERS!!!

Have you not used a search function before? Jesus, it is 2025. I guess being impressed by that explains why Chris Getz can so easily impress you.

It's literally a key word search. It's not magic. Look, being close to people in power isn't impressive to me. Being able to discern when you are being used for your audience, vs remaining alert and objective in that situation, is. Repeating all of the same lines we heard through Kenny's time, and then Rick's time, without having a healthy skepticism, is the definition of wildly creepy. Also, sorry I hurt you.

Guys, this isn't even new. Kiss the ring, y'all.

so Chris gave you a nice pat on the head and now you believe. Good lord the arrogance.

The gullability is impressive.

That's the whole point. Then all of the water carriers have another reason to proclaim his genius to all of us heathens.

Decade after decade after decade of being lied to, but a guy who has been with this group forever himself is saying it is different, so it's different. That's it.

Sox personnel don't do that.

We know. You keep flexing on everyone who doesn't agree. Getz is the only person in the organization who knew what he was doing.

That deal was stupid the day it was signed, and is only getting dumber in hindsight.

I believe them because they told me so, but forget about the same business lying to me for the last 40 years, but now it's different is a way better outlook on life.

If he comes up in April and becomes Alex Rodriguez he isn't going to see the end of those 6 years in a White Sox uniform either, so what is the difference, besides one less year of trade value?

It means they probably take a QB and not Hunter in the draft, which makes a trade up less likely in front of the Bears. Bears need teams to believe in some of these guys and trade up so other teams don't take OL.

Especially when you refuse to play at the top of the market.

Seems like long term roster management would be a part of the "process", no?

Ah, makes more sense.
