There is a high level of turnover on baseball teams from year to year. Especially during a rebuild. Weird how people who agree with you complain about all the guys on this team who won't be on the next competitive team, but don't get that a good half of the next playoff team might not even be in the organization, yet. Maybe you should just stick to calling Reinsdorf cheap every 15 minutes. That seems to be the heaviest logical lifting you can do without pulling something.

Better than lifting and carrying water for the worst GM in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there wasn't one year to waste...then the 2026 White Sox should be on the verge of the WS lol. Ofc thos year's Sox team doesn't have Konerko Crede Rowand Buehrle Jon Garland Cotts and Marte already rostered...and who will play the role of Jenks? Grant Taylor?

WhiteSox2023 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 If Getz had done a good job in his previous roles and current role, he'd have a young outfielder to play right now rather than Palacios and Taylor and Maton at DH. That's simply embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you missed the point entirely. A rebuilding team shouldn't be entering a season with the grand idea of a Tauchman/Slater platoon.

Exactly why you don't jump to sign old vets just cuz you think you are getting a deal at $2 million per old bum. Slater was Getz's #1 offseason target. He even said so. LOL, what a moron.

That was $10+ million down the drain. You seriously think those were good signings by Getz? The only thing worse than those signings was him trading young players for mediocre old relievers with no history of success.
