Opening Day Angels/Sox 3/27...
Burke settled in nicely, the first two innings were close to disaster but he locked in.

Are we sure Vargas put on 20 lbs of muscle? The few times ive been able to see him so far he looks pretty soft in the mid-section....

Its a fact, not sure about the fun part. More like sad fact.

Yeah especially with their MO of older cheap vets I don't know why they chose to pay Vaughn almost $6 million

Ugh, I hate Benintendi so much I would let my daughter date Mike Clevinger before Andrew Benintendi. I can't wait for this guy to be gone.

Its white sox baseball, im pumped regardless. The only kick in the nuts is you wait forever for it to be back and its like "opening day! Oh, by the way immediately an off day tomorrow." Hate it.

You ignore all that stuff, just keep backing out and going back in until you can get it to play. Took me about 4-5 times before I got it going but its working.

Eder, Fletcher DFA'd , Thorpe to the 60 day IL
Why are people taking victory laps? The Marlins saw a little over 1 season of Jake Burger and said no thanks and moved him for some back end top 30 organizational prospects. Nobody won that trade.

Its crazy, there's 3 games going on right now what the f*** is the problem.

I would rather see Christian Mena in our rotation right now or in a few weeks over some of these other guys, especially when we have the hindsight to see how many injuries have happened with our pitchers.

Anyone else having trouble with their MLB.tv? It keeps erroring out and not letting me get in, I am going to be an unhappy camper if I don't get to waste the last 2 hours of my workday watching the Sox instead of being productive and earning a paycheck.

Which makes it a bad look on Getz for his guy making that terrible assessment...

This is most alarming to me. Everyone is hanging their hat on all these changes and hirings being made behind the scenes and here we are DFA'ing people this regime just traded for one offseason ago.

Colas DFA'd. Greg Jones claimed
I would says 0.0 % chance caulfield was in on the reference.... lol

Alexander Canario
I don't even think Canario has been officially put on waivers anyways.. so ill at least not pretend we chose this guy over him for now.

Alexander Canario
Sorry, best we can do is a 27 year old who can't hit. He is fast though..

How do you rank Chris Getz' GM tenure so far?
Careful, you're going to summon all the posters who are going to say the White Sox were never trying to win and the pencil pushers he has hired are going to change the world, you just wait for 3-4 years you'll see.
-
Who are you most excited to watch this year?
While I don't believe they expected to contend for a playoff spot, based on the things they said and the moves they made heading into 2024 there is no way I believe at all that they weren't trying to win. I honestly believe they thought they would probably be in the 70's for wins based on just improving the defense and patching the holes the roster had forever and completely backtracked once the season started and everything went off the rails. No team entering a tear down is trading a SP prospect for a 26 year old low upside corner outfielder. It is what it is at this point, here's to hoping this time is better.
-
How do you rank Chris Getz' GM tenure so far?
Yeah, 2-5 with 0 series wins. Stellar.
-
How do you rank Chris Getz' GM tenure so far?
Wow, so many success stories here. The Sox must have been really good the past couple of years.

Off-Season Pass the Time Catch-All
Benintendi, Tauchman, and Slater.

Sox Claim P Mike Vasil
That's fair, we don't know for sure what exactly his role was. What I do know is, he was part of the regime that caused this franchise to bottom out. Common sense dictates that you don't keep those people around when its time to start over. I know you already agree with that though.

Sox Claim P Mike Vasil
I don't see how you can even think that. A big part were in this mess is because he was bad at his job as the director of player development. If we had hired an outside candidate to be GM, absolutely, they had no ties to this mess and have a huge pile of work to do to get it right. The guy they did hire, absolutely had a hand in creating this disaster by his inability to do his job successfully. How can you say that it should just be ignored now that he is the GM instead?
