lostfan Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 I would feel even better if Jerry announced he was selling the team and retiring so we wouldn't be the 2010s Washington Redskins of baseball anymore, but I'll take what I can get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBooneLoganEra Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Not gonna lie, I truly appreciate this news came as I sat in Reggies having a drink. Same location as the famous Rick Hahn White Sox Talk podcast. Cheers all! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned that if either Haber or Getz were named the permanent G.M. nothing would really change. I am VERY encouraged by this comment: "Based I what I heard him (JR) say at dinner last week I would be shocked if either one (Haber or Getz) remains let alone get that job. My understanding is they are both part of the problem." As someone said earlier, you have to keep people there to answer the phone for a little bit .

I’m following him wherever he goes. At least Kenny was never complacent with losing and was never shy about shaking things up when he felt the players weren't performing up to his expectations. Trade deadlines and offseasons were always much more interesting under KW than after Hahn took over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half this board have better sources with the Sox than Bruce does.

TheFutureIsNear Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Please don’t go internal. Hire somebody from the Braves or Rays and overhaul this thing. There’s no band aid big enough to fix this organization in the short term, bring someone in that can build a minor league system and identify talent. If it’s not Getz I’m curious what ancient dinosaur Jerry can dig up to do the job. I don’t have high hopes for liking the hire 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrub Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Not that I'm suggesting him as a Grifol replacement, but is Justin Jirschele still highly thought of by Sox fans? It seemed like some people were excited about his potential a few years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
