Anderson isn't a top 30 player in baseball

The Sox didn't develop those guys. They traded them because they don't have an eye for talent. They thought Tatis and Semien for Samardzija and Shields was a good idea 

Everyone involved can go f*** themselves

Brooks? I knew you posted here! 

Worst pep talk ever.

Coming into this season he was ranked somewhere around 11-13 in the SS/positional rankings...

Maybe in terms of hype/national attention/video game covers/batting title/Field of Dreams walkoff, etc.

Marketing/recognition Top 30.

Are we done blaming LaRussa?

Never!

The powers that brought him back and allowed him to crater this team still exist, completely unaccountable.

So 1 guy.  One top 30 player.  One single home grown star.  Do you want a cookie?  A gold star?

There probably are 30 better players than TA, but whether he is or isn’t a top 30 player really isn’t the point.  Having produced *only* one arguably top 30 player is though.  That’s hardly praiseworthy, and I wholeheartedly echo your sentiments.  Everyone involved with putting this wretched team together can get fucked.
 
We deserve so much better as fans.
