December 30, 20232 yr The best part is that this isn’t just a flier signing. Passan said Flexen was signed to fill out the rotation. Getz for the win. Edited December 30, 20232 yr by WhiteSox2023

December 30, 20232 yr You know, I think that Rick Hahn thought that he was legitimately trying. If Chris Getz thinks that he's legitimately trying, then boy, this is the saddest fucking thing ever.
December 30, 20232 yr We keep signing guys to major league deals that shouldn’t receive major league deals

Tony La Russa plus the Kimbrel and Steak Dinner deals plus extension put a fork in any White Sox “multi championship window”.

Getz is literally overpaying washed up bums at this point, and you could argue that they shouldn’t even be receiving anything but a minor league deal.

I'd give anything for the Veeck years over this ownership group!
December 30, 20232 yr 13 minutes ago, Buehrle>Wood said: I'm fine with this compared to their other recent signings. Seems like Getz is stockpiling projects for Bannister and his veteran catchers. Might just work with a few of these guys.

December 30, 20232 yr Just now, Squirmin' for Yermin said: Silly. What is silly is the flaming bags of dog poo flung this week by many of the who supported the high priced morbidly obese s%*# Hahn signed throughout ten years, spending less that what Hahn paid for a season of Parrot. Well that and the Assclowns who praised Rick Hahn for the Carriesque like GM of the Year Award for finishing third in the AL Central and signing the aforementioned on their last MLB contracts.
December 30, 20232 yr 9 minutes ago, fathom said: I’ve said this a few times, but can you imagine how low the payroll will go next offseason? Is it possible that they’re slashing payroll to make it easier to sell the club, what other explanation for one bizarre signing after another.

December 30, 20232 yr his HR rate doubled in 2023 but other than that he's solid #5 on a 4th place team? hope he rebounds to his 2021 self
December 30, 20232 yr I hate the lack of process that resulted in Getz, but I‘m not putting this on him. This is Renisdorf. He’s a poison to and on the city of Chicago. he’s had multiple opportunities to take this franchise to the next level, and EVERY SINGLE TIME he pulls them down. I’m throwing a goddamn party when that piece of s%*# dies.
December 30, 20232 yr 8 minutes ago, DirtySox said: I don't know why you hold onto Robert at this point. He's just cleaning up the bottom of the roster with cheap vets. He'll start working his way up soon.
December 30, 20232 yr 3 minutes ago, The Mighty Mite said: Is it possible that they’re slashing payroll to make it easier to sell the club, what other explanation for one bizarre signing after another. They lost an insane amount of money last year due to attendance being so bad
December 30, 20232 yr Just now, fathom said: They lost an insane amount of money last year due to attendance being so bad Well, they better prepare for more of the same this year. Who would actually pay to see the product they will be throwing out on the field?
