That hasn't been true for years.

Robert is too good of a hitter to triple him up on a fastball

His 1.25 million not to play is still 1.7 WAR more productive than Moldy for $4 million.

Eh, a full year injury to Max Stassi isn't really worth getting worked up about. It's not like an Eloy situation where you should have known better.

Chris Getz: Challenge Accepted!

A lot more if you look at his 1-46 or his current 0-30.

Holy crap, someone needs a better password than p@ssword.

And of course it looks like no one cares on the field either.

Nah, I could see Sox management being stupid enough to think they can quickly turn this around so that they end up both with expiring contracts on these guys and not enough in the farm system at the same time, all so they can still suck even longer than they would have.

The title of the Sox 2024 highlight reel?

Just out of curiosity I looked up the 23 roster. Names of note: Basically almost every offensive player has gotten worse since leaving the Sox while the pitching has improved by and large. Hardly the "everyone" narrative we previously heard. Grandal 23 .647 OPS vs 24 .470 Andrus DNP in 24 Anderson 23 .582 OPS vs 24 .427 Jake Burger 23 w/Sox .806 OPS vs 24 .597 OPS Seby 23 w/ Sox .511 OPS vs 24 .489 Romy 23 .585 OPS, vs 24 .651 Alberto DNP in 24 Trayce DNP in 24 Frazor DNP 24 Hasley DNP 24 Naquin DNP 24 Marisnick DNP 24 Billy Hamilton DNP 24 Jose Rodriguez DNP 24 Giolito DNP 24 Lynn 23 w/Sox 6.47 era 24 3.58 era Cease 23 4.58 ERA vs 24 3.51 era Graveman 23 3.48 era vs 2.42, though his FIP has actually gone up from 4.82 last year to 5.00 this year Santos DNP 24 Bummer 23 6.79 era vs 24 3.68 (FIP difference is only 3.58 to 2.74) ReyLo 23 w/Sox 4.29 era vs 24 1.85 era Middleton 23 3.96 era vs 24 1.99 (though now injured) Scholtens DNP 24 Joe Kelly 23/w Sox 4.97 era vs 24 4.73 Urena 23 4.10 era vs 3.44 era Ramsey DNP 24 Deikman 23 w/Sox 7.94 era vs 24 3.80 Cronin 23 9.00 era vs 24 2.10 Navarro DNP 24 After that I quit...

Did James Shields ever pitch again after leaving the Sox? Tatis is a weird one because he never actually played for them. Yeah, he turned into a star, but it is hard to say he "improved" when he never proved here at all.

Max has put up 1.7 more WAR than Moldy, without a single AB or inning caught.

The fantasy that he might heal up some day and we would be able to release Moldy.

instead now we have a bunch of bums who should have never set foot on a field.

And the first thing he did was bring in a load of his favorite JR style grindy guys, and here we are in record worst territory. Huh, maybe there is a reason that no one in MLB has tried a team of David Ecksteins? Nah. They just aren't as smart as Getz.

It's cute that it was only those two guys. Makes me laugh every, single time.

And the worst fielding team in baseball. It is unwatchable now.

Dylan Cease is John Danks fault? Cool.
