  1. Skip is currently employed by the Marlins, so I doubt that is happening until after the season. Could definitely see that being the plan, however.
  2. Huh? Where am I "grasping for Getz's nuts"? I think he's done a pretty awful job all around. I also think this was always going to take a few years. Look, you can spend half your day on this board spewing negativity for the next however many years until the Sox are relevant again if you so please. Certainly your right. The organization is an absolute dumpster fire at the moment. But I am at least willing to see things through a bit knowing this wasn't going to be a good team in 2024 and 2025 no matter who the manager or GM were. I would have like our POS owner to make an actual GM hire, but he didn't and Getz is here and likely will be for awhile. Since I am a White Sox fan, I'll certainly hope for the best. I don't pretend to think WhiteSox2023 or I are more qualified for the job.
  3. Pretty small sample, and he was REALLY good in AA. His overall 2024 line is really solid. I am not exactly expecting him to do well right away, but I wouldn't write him off due to 4 poor AAA outings.
  4. He could very well still turn into a trade piece at some point. Tough couple weeks for sure. Id option him for a couple weeks, get the year back, and try again next year.
  5. +100. Happy for Eloy he’s found some early success but people grasping for it are hilarious. It doesn’t even matter. Dude was getting bought out the second the Sox had the opportunity.
  6. They definitely should. He’s earned it, and it’s the best thing to do contractually for the org.
  7. I don’t see them doing it mid road trip. It was either last Wed / Thur, or probably not happening until after the season. Getz isn’t even in Mpls.
  8. Send Wilson back to Charlotte. He’s been ass, and he’s gotta be like a week away from another year of control.
  9. Let’s give him a little more rope before we make these kinds of declarations.
  10. When you’re going bad, you’re going bad. Castro should have struck out on a check swing where he clearly went, and then boom, game over. Not that it’d have mattered anyway, Sox aren’t scoring in the 9th.
  11. Crochet is very erratic today. Making me nervous
  12. Shut crochet down. He’s a rocking time bomb right now. Cash in your winnings FFS.
  13. I suppose the one thing that could change that is JRs death or a sale of the franchise.
  14. There is simply a 0% chance of this happening. Is not even worth the brain power. Like it or not, Getz is the GM for at least the next half decade.
  15. He’ll probably throw 4 innings tops. Who is gonna get the other 15 outs?
  16. It’s his elbow. They would have said so if it was hip, I would imagine.
  17. From MLBTR write up: The Sox are surely more interested in his Triple-A output. Last year, he logged 33 1/3 innings for Triple Oklahoma City with a 2.16 ERA while striking out 29.3% of opponents and giving out walks just 6% of the time. This year, the results haven’t been as nice, but with a lot of bad luck. In 32 2/3 innings at Triple-A in 2024, he has a .372 batting average on balls in play and 18.5% home run per flyball rate, which undoubtedly helped produce his 53.1% strand rate. The 7.99 ERA isn’t pretty but his 23.8% strikeout rate, 8.6% walk rate and 44.3% ground ball rate are all decent metrics.
  18. Since everyone loves to point out when former Sox do well, Fedde is getting smoked in his first Cards start. 5 ER and he’s not thru the 2nd inning.
