Jerry literally operates with what? Private equity. What do you think it means when you get together a bunch of your buddies privately to buy something with non-public funds to operate a company in secret with no public reporting? It's Private Equity. By definition it's Private Equity.

You can't demonstrate that 2 more wins is better? Seems like your have your own embarrassment.

They don't seem to think highly of any of the kids who have been here a while, which is a huge indictment of this player development system. There is a list of players in this bucket they absolutely refuse to play.

But enough about Jerry.

This is wild after you spend all day, everyday, screaming that the Sox/Getz can't possibly be responsible for all of the bad things happening. Great job disqualifying your own opinion. Again.

Fits vs Perez

Don’t worry, we will fix him.

I am going to have to make another one of these? Wow. Not sure I remember how to do that

This is a pretty solid point.

Oh boy, Jerry is going to cut half the budget again after seeing this.

JI JIMTHOME!

He does talk about the 1955 Dodgers an awful lot.

We have two choices when this happens. We can shoot the messenger or the organization can look inward and do better. Who am I kidding? The White Sox shoot the messenger, and then have one of their minions write a puff piece.

I knew this was what was happening...

Very optimistic of you.

Yeah, this is the same organization that thought Andrew Vaughn could handle RF defensively, so I am going to need to actually see it happen first.

When Chris Getz is gone and we are all told that everything was his fault, and now the FNGM can do no wrong.

This is also a fun read. Then note is from 2020, where he is talking about the same kind of things they are today. Fancy machines to aid in analytics. Bringing in new people from the outside to prevent injuries. Next verse, same as the first. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1566148/2020/01/28/what-the-white-soxs-next-stage-of-player-development-looks-like/

It was previously posted that Getz had a large amount of freedom in his previous role.

When he became GM of Montreal. But you have been going on an on about 2003 when he was GM of the Detroit Tigers, which was 15 YEARS after he had those previous eight years of experience. Again, nice twist of information there. Not to mention the fact that the White Sox most successful player development ERA was the late 80s and early 90s, instantly contrasting his performance with Chris Getz's demonstrating masterfully Getz's failing upwards, vs someone actually earning a promotion.

But interestingly enough also wrong, or intentionally leaving parts out. He was an assistant GM for the White Sox before going to Montreal. But I do appreciate the move of the goalposts from his time with the Tigers to his time with Montreal.

This is a solid sleight of hand.

I think I made around 10 game threads last year, and never made a second one in a row. Let's see if my streak Getz ended tonight. Davis Martin vs Sean Newcomb
