Would Jordan have eventually succeeded in the MLB?
I think he would have gotten his cup of tea at some point. I think Jerry totally would have had him called up to sell some tickets.

Revisiting the Bummer Trade
Trading Bummer was never the problem. It was the return targeting guys who were approaching free agency and DFA status instead of trying to refill the farm system. The problem was Getz trying to get a few more wins in 2024 versus worrying about 2028 and beyond.

I know Jim would help, but unless he could play O line, not sure how much.

Yeah, max up on picks and literally draft all O line.

White Sox claim Penn Murfee
So he had TJS in June of 23, which means his about 15.5 months out of surgery. He should be at the stage where he is somewhere between ramping up throwing and throwing a max effort depending on if he is the 12 month, or 18 month recovery type. It also means he will be past his 18 months by spring training. At it's core it is a low mileage arm with a ton of cheap control for a bullpen that will need like 20 arms this year. You hold him, and if you want to DFA him for something better, no biggie.

And after we win 65 games, greg will still be mystified.

Name the names. Also you don't have $70 million to spend this year. More like 1/3 to 1/2 of it even if there were the real people to do this with.

Yeah must of the team just sucked. They sucked more than they should have, but they mostly tried. It is easy to look lazy when you have no talent.

Can't be Chris Getz.

Essentially it would be a Co-Manager. They would typically get to perform some amount of the duties typically allotted to the actual manager. Those things would probably be figured out between the two manager types and the GM.
