If we are talking about a mere year into the future, I am pouring millions into turning White Sox operations into the developement envy of the league. Poach the best minds in scouting, developement, data, etc. Whatever it takes. I leave FA alone for the most part until there is a homegrown foundation in place.

Firing Getz doesn't solve anything, but that doesn't make him any less deserving. Ultimately you are correct though, one incompetent boob replacing another doesn't change the calculus until there is change at the very top.

There's an easy and obvious solution, but these dumbasses would rather one of their two most promising prospects sit every night. s%*# like this is why I just can't take Getz & Co. seriously.

Another org might take the chance he rebounds into a semi-productive player, but there’s no way JR let’s Getz make that gamble. He’s gone at the deadline for whatever, or he’s gone at the end of the season.

Classic outlandish rebuttal not based in fact whatsoever.

You had me at Chris Getz is a moron. The later is much less egregious with the draft being such a crapshoot.

Please don't make me hate Geno...

Because they care more about winning meaningless games than developing players?

I mean, f*** the Cubs, but the White Sox are in no position to worry about something this frivolous. If the Cubs have the best offer, you take it and run before they wise up. Taking a lesser return just to not help the Cubs is cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Appreciate the perspective and really hope you’re right.

Have you actually watched Sosa play 3rd? Cuz I don’t think you’d say this if you have.

Getz' pets are like cockroaches. They always find their way back.

So we are back to the 'this only his 2nd full season' BS. He's had over 600 AB's in the bigs and LAD burned through his options giving him multiple opportunities. If you want to squint at a hot streak and see it as his norm, by all means, you do you. But looking at his whole body of work in the bigs, seeing a hot streak for what it is and remaining skeptical is a perfectly fair position.

You’re really in no position to dunk on people who think he’s a bust either. Those PCL numbers from years past still haven’t translated to sustained success in the Majors.

Toilet bowl might be too kind. This is more ‘Portajohn after a show at Red Rocks’

The 2027 world series of poker? These guys wouldn't even win the the college world series...

Vargas' history of being bad is still a much larger sample than him being good.

Looking at his Baseball Reference page, he made 4 starts at 3B in 2025 before his stint in AZ and none previously, which is far fewer than I thought. Perhaps they aren't that dumb?

Not suggesting it would be a good move, just wouldn't be surprised by it.

I wouldn’t be shocked if they started him at 3B and benched or released Rojas.

This is the White Sox, of course they will rush him up the moment he shows a pulse. I am in complete agreement with you though, I would have waited to see him sustain the recent success for a larger sample, even if it’s a few more weeks.

I know this is sarcastic, but thankfully the Mets, Phillies, and Dodgers still exist.

They have made more splashes in FA than big trades, but being able to acquire Betts and Glasnow without emptying out the farm sure doesn’t hurt.

By not being historically bad? Yeah I got nothing.

I love that he’s no longer a White Sox!
