He wants to win with his own rules but he was against tanking so I am not certain he is watching this product and it is sitting well. He wants to be competitive and turn a profit. he is doing neither. Williams was good and that, Hahn was a failure and Getz is looking at historically bad. If Getz truly solid him on something that got him the job, it is not going well. JR is not a fool and if Getz played him for one it may not end well for Getz.

If the value of the franchise is losing money and I am not certain that is even possible, it is impacting him. Being a loser does not impact him. His antiquated rules have always sucked but Getz removed the 2nd place carrot and one of the only hopes I have is that he wakes up....I know the chances of him doing it are probably slim and none but he listened to Getz and bought into a quick fix and not only did that not happen but they are failing at a historic rate. If Getz guy was Pedro they should both be excused.

I wonder if JR has woken up and neutered Getz. The lack of movement seems strange and may be proof that the Williams/Hahn transactions last year and results of this year signal a change. Did the corpse of TLR take over behind the scenes. Going to be longer than the one year now that JR spoke of last year. JR is a horrible owner but he was never one to run this s%*# out there. His franchise is deteriorating and that does not benefit him.

7-28 Gamethread: Mariners at Sox (1:10pm)
Harry Chappas replied to Chicago White Sox's topic in 2024 Season in Review
The players know the organization has given up as the idiot manager is retained. Zero reason Fedde and Crochet pitched this weekend. -
Doesn't seem to have much as far as pitch recognition goes.

I was always a Dale Tallon and then Hossa signing (no brainer) got them where they needed to be. Then Stan rode his father and the pieces in place to look good. Similar to Jed Hoyer to Theo although Theo seemed to get out while the getting was good. I am an average hockey fan so I could be wrong but that was how it seemed to play out in my opinion.

Crochet wants an extension to pitch in the playoffs

I think you can build an offense through free agency but it is harder to build pitching (especially JR style) through free agency. -

Thats as bad an AB you will see. Really hope they move Robert and Crochet. -
Kopech expected to moved by the deadline

Fedde should not throw another pitch for the Chicago White Sox -

I like the draft pick more to add money to the #10 pick next year and pay insane money to a prep kid at 10 to ease the burden of sucking and not being rewarded for it this year. -
I joined in 2003 my screen name was HSCBiggestFan (Hot Sox Chick), when she claimed that Kenny Williams was on the hot seat. Took about 20 years for the seat to get any hotter. I migrated from ESPN board and was member number 300ish I think.

Smith and Schultz are vastly different paths.

7/14 - Pittsburgh @ White Sox - 1:10 pm, Keller v. Shuster
Harry Chappas replied to WestEddy's topic in 2024 Season in Review
The most unclutch player I recall. Not sure how correct the hard work comment is. Has kind of mailed it in as much as Benentendi. IMHO -
I bet they package bad salary (Moncada, Benentendi) with Fedde and get little in return. 3 lottery tickets that they can claim are the next Tatis Jr.

Greg I like anyone that doesnt s%*# on the southside. You and Lip need to meet up at the St Catherine smoker. AJ and Hawk were awesome there. Small room of hardcore sports fans.

How much is a guy like Fedde worth in a trade?
Harry Chappas replied to ron883's topic in Trade Winds 2024
Hopefully the cubs sweep them.
