That was underachievement as well. In an extremely weak division at that time they shoulda won 99. That's 2nd place in a tough division and a wild card

Best post of the Getz error I mean era.

Keeping Vaughn just creates the log jam.

They don't need to do that when they have a history of the position players they draft in the 1st round.

hard to remember when this team wasn't

He's just unlucky.

I feel the same way about Getz. I don't have a high opinion of him or feel he's a long term solution. The only long term solution I feel from him is consistent at losing 90-100 games in my lifetime.

The footprint of all small market habitual losing teams. How will it stack up with the other teams like the A's, Marlins, Pirates. Rockies..... The eternity of rebuilding

Even if the Sox lose by a small margin it's still impressive against this team.

You will be going to your grave wondering that every season with this organization. You would need a new owner to gut everything out but sadly it will be the rebuild of a rebuild of a rebuild rebuild. Hopefully they would not promote someone who was bad at their previous job.

They could do the Eder trade the sequel or the suckwell.

This organization will never run out of stupid until it is completely overhauled from the top.

I wish I could be giddy about it but I still look back at the 2020 team like that. I worry there is something very toxic about this organization that I still can't trust.

The best way for them to improve that is play players out of position. They done it before.

That's easy. You have a failed farm director promoted to GM and still have no clue what he is doing other than being employed because Jerry likes him.

This team will probably be dead for my eternity.

I think people like gambling more than the sport, especially the NFL. Soon every sports event will go to all paid streaming and gamblers don't really need to watch. If that does will people pay four figures a year to watch sports? Hockey is rarely on local TV and few really care about that sport anymore.

I did it so I could watch anyone but the Sox. Still considering a divorce until JR and Getz are gone

Myth

next up It’s so crazy to see how bad player to be named later is This organization is a cancer.

This formula of the habitual losing small market teams. Hope the shitty veterans will produce at the right time just to get shitty minor league talent. That would work if there were more clueless GMs in the game but those are rare and we have one of them. Luck happens once in awhile and shitty organizations and owners will have maybe 2 years of success and they go back to being shitty.

Biggest myth in baseball

Not stupid but White Sox. From now on stupid is no longer in my vocabulary. I will use White Sox instead of stupid.

Always assign players positions they don't play and somehow you hope it doesn't hurt their career. Of course for the Getz Sox that would be trade deadline career. No shortage of stupid in baseball when it comes to habitual losing small market teams. If baseball had stupid rankings instead of power rankings the Sox would be juggernauts.

They are like the White Sox except the Pirates can produce their own talent.
