He's not going to be a savior. You hope he provides replacement value, or slightly above, which in this situation would be a huge positive. Jesus Christ himself couldn't save this team.

For the record, I have no problem at all with Getz getting some credit here. It is consistent with his also getting blame for all of the failures that happened at the same time. I am not quite sure why we played some of the other clowns on the roster instead of Elko, but hopefully he does something positive. There is literally no downside. We lose nothing if he sucks, because that is what we already have.

Honestly making that easy was pretty amazing.

Wait I thought since Getz didn't direct him to be drafted he couldn't be held responsible for his development. Pick a lane ,Grandpa.

FIFY

If the Sox win 50, that's 2.

BUT THINK OF THE ROSTER MANAGEMENT!?!?! Glad to see them finally reward the kid.

So they probably rushed him back before being healthy. Wonderful.

This is awesome.

The Sox being tested by God would explain a lot.

I am sure Jerry is already trying to figure out how to market Papal Suites into this.

Chris Getz either set a record, or came really close to doing so, for most players used on a major league roster last year, and it doesn't seem like there is much less churn so far this year. The absolute last excuse that needs to be used here is that Getz just can't churn the roster. He churns this roster like an Amish making butter.

If we really seem to care about how good of a teammate a guy is, this dude seems like the opposite.

This just reads like how the Sox operate in free agency. Instead of the top rated guys, we try to squint and find the almost as good guy for cheaper.

Still waiting for us to not be the dumbest team in baseball.

Nick was traded in his 2nd season with the team. To be fair, if Rick had waited until his 5th season of mediocrity to bad, they wouldn't have gotten anything from him either.

They did it with Nick Madrigal super quick.

The Pope is a Cub fan and the Sox can't score.

Mine was first.

But ketchup on a hot dog is a direct trip to hell.

Even though most of us have never met in person, we still have those real life memories and stories which makes it just as real.

No. Just losers. There shouldn't be any glory surrounding being perpetual losers.
