SoCalChiSox Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Getz/Moore is a joke.....but consider that no one credible is going to work for an 87 year old owner who could sell or pass away at any time and then they know new ownership will want their own person. No one is going to sign up for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Why wouldn’t Getz have been named immediately if this was happening? I’ll wait for it to be official before I freak out on JR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is going to sign up for that. This is only true for Chicago teams. Other teams with awful situations routinely show the power of holding only one of thirty highly desired jobs trumps it. The dolphins were a mess and then hire one of the best offensive minds. The orioles were a joke and pull the Houston front office. The Sox are a joke and need to hire a guy who just pulled off the worst rebuild in baseball to replace the guy who pulled off the third worst.

Maybe Jerry is his buddy You think Jerry just came to his decision yesterday, and has given no thought to who would replace Rick/Kenny? They said in the statement they expect someone in the position by the end of the season. That's like 40 days. When Jerry fired KW/Rick yesterday, he 100% knew who would be replacing them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 10 minutes ago, Look at Ray Ray Run said: Dayton Moore is a weirdo but he's certainly had more success than Hahn. The problem with Getz is Hahn likes him. No idea what Getz would do if in charge, and the president hire is more important imo. Getz could be fine in the right spot, hard to say. People say sox have no developmental stories and that's not really true. He has but not much. 3 winning seasons as a GM/President from2007-2022. 9 times lost at least 90.
