August 23, 20232 yr 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.

August 23, 20232 yr So the brain trust is Tony, Moore, Getz and Grifol? Sounds like it’s definitely going to work, right?
August 23, 20232 yr One of the main reasons Madrigal was traded was because of his overt clubhouse Christianity…they want to bring all that back under Moore?

August 23, 20232 yr 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.

Yeah, why say interim and name candidates. The concerning part is tlr is and always was going to be involved which doesn't bode well. He needed to hire someone outside to manage a search.

This is where corn flakes were created and led to the eventual formation of the Kellogg Company.” This is where all Sox fans are eventually headed…the Asylum of Loons. We’ve become part of the Beauty & the Beast storyline, minus the villagers storming JR’s exec suite with pitchforks candlesticks knives and armoires.

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.

It would imply that Jerry has been having these conversations prior to the termination eith someone like Moore. It also just feels like a weird fit. That said, who knows. Maybe Jerry is his buddy

Maybe Jerry is his buddy Tony and others probably convinced him in Cooperstown a few weeks ago it’s time to make a change. It’s an easy decision for Moore, I’m sure

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.

August 23, 20232 yr 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.
