Reinsdorf releases statement to say he'll speak more later
Guess who LaRussa was working for before JR had to have him back?

Ramos being recalled, Brooks to IL
Using the same logic they are using here, isn't it time to move Vaughn to CF and get Robert some reps at 1B?

Reinsdorf releases statement to say he'll speak more later
I'm thinking after setting the record, the next thing JR will "embrace" is a nice long rebuild. He saw how fans got excited to see prospects that didn't pan out, but he also saw his bank account grow. A rebuild builds that up, and lets him go forever without admitting he was wrong about Getz.

Reinsdorf releases statement to say he'll speak more later
There is no question JR is the problem for the White Sox. But that doesn't mean it ends there. If the White Sox were owned by someone most would say is a good owner, would Chris Getz be the GM? Would Pedro Grifol lasted that long in the dugout? It goes on and on. Yes, JR sucks, but so do all of his suck ups.

I'm looking forward to the record, and loss 118. 118 will mean the Sox have averaged 100 losses a year since making the playoffs.

Sox trying to fix Vargas
If there is any team that can fix Vargas, it's the White Sox said no one ever.

Why do players gearing paid millions to play a kids game poorly, get credit for trying? Trophies for everyone.

Sox "gathering names" in MGR search
Especially when you are picking 10th at best. He is showing what he is. If time is of the essence, he needs to be shown the door today.

19-83, 6-46. I understand it's a rebuild. but this is ridiculous How does he keep his job.

Considering they are 6-46 their last 52, it would seem impossible to hit the 40 win mark. They currently might even be worse than their record.

They also played a vast majority of their games on the road. It wasnt MLB. As far as I can tell, the White Sox are now the 3rd professional sports team since the beginning of last century to reach the 80 games below .500 mark in a season. Embrace it.

If the GM expected 105-110 losses, Pham served zero purpose. Getz later said RH hitting OF had no value on the market.

Shut Out Counter
Which is something, like fixing the pitching development, which he had nothing to do with in his previous roles, , and building a lockdown bullpen, Getz can be proud of.

14 home losses in a row. New record. 1-22 at home since the All Star break. Embrace it.

Yes, but that's a huge asterisk. The first one was expanded playoffs after 60 games. Where their starting pitching was at that point doesn't make it seem plausible they would have been in the race had it been a normal year.

What happened was they never addressed their shortcomings. They had an awful offseason in 2021-2022. That was followed up with an even worse one in 2022-2023, and an even worse one in 2023-2024. There is no reason to think it may improve. Jerry had one of the worst front offices in baseball, and he made it worse, and was either totally fooled or lied to the press and his fanbase. For us, it toally sucks. For him, he will just slash payroll to the point he can't help but make a profit, and be all in on Getz proving him right, even though it will never happen.

And probably the $16.5 million contract that was given to him.

yes, but they would have won just as many playoff series.

He also made a big thing about Hagen meeting Crochet. Hagen was on the broadcast and said he didn't meet Crochet.

I wasn't before, but after these quotes, I am openly cheering for Chris Getz and Jerry Reinsdorf to be able to say they put together the worst MLB team of all time. I hope they embrace it.

Not to mention, no access to the fruits of being historically terrible, and now picking 10th.
