July 30, 20241 yr Just now, Highland said: Moving forward to what? Trying to accumulate some system wide talent instead of two players who will be gone by the time the team is good again.

Throw the fans a little bone. Tell them LaRussa has been banned from GRF.. Edited July 30, 20241 yr by Dick Allen
July 30, 20241 yr Steve Phillips just said, in a very nice way, that St Louis and Los Angeles took advantage of Getz on the Fedde/Kopech trade. He thinks the return was no where close to being enough.

July 30, 20241 yr Reality is - as soon as we hit tomorrow - some of the short-timers need to go and they need to give consistent at bats to Lee, Sosa, Colas and a bunch others over the next 2 months. I don't know what they'll do with Quero but you could put him on the list and obviously Vargas is a given. I'm sure I'm missing others - not saying you should rush everyone - but for those that have gotten enough expeirence and you need to see if they are MLB'ers or AAAA ers now is hte time.
July 30, 20241 yr Can someone explain to me why they're still playing Sheets in RF and not giving Colas a look?

How many games are they gonna win with a lineup like that? Do you have no pride??

July 30, 20241 yr Deadline report card Crochet? Nope Robert? Nope Fedde 0% Banks B+ Pham 0%, no reason to have had him to get nothing for him Kopech 50%. if the LAD/STL deal was for him, 100%, with Fedde and Pham also going out, awful. Brebbia, Why is he still here?

July 30, 20241 yr Given the sheer number of young, low minor league prospects he got back in return clearly tells me this team is not investing in trying to be much better next season and I'd guess in 2026 either.
July 30, 20241 yr Our GM is totally inept. Surprised not in the least !! He came from KC. Two years ago we were considered as World Series candidates. Now we are the laughing stock of MLB. Let's not hold on to these LOSERS. GM and manager should have already been gone.
July 30, 20241 yr My guess is if he took the best offer folks would have complained he lost the deal. Let's hope for a strong second half and an of season trade.
July 30, 20241 yr If you were a GM my negotiating with the Sox would you give away the farm to make a deal? It's obvious we are desperate sellers. He probably kept getting low balled with every team expecting him to cave. A good GM would walk away and keep his guy. It's not like we have stars on walk years.

Or, he doesn’t have the ability to get a decent return for his assets (see Fedde trade). Edited July 30, 20241 yr by WhiteSox2023
