WhiteSox2023 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Second worst record in all of baseball, behind the Marlins. The Marlins have a $97 million dollar payroll. The Sox have around a $142 million dollar payroll. Going by this article but it’s probably wrong. How will our amazing manager Grifol rally his troops to turn this around? P.S. — Chris Getz is the worst GM in baseball. Edited April 7 by WhiteSox2023 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Did people not know they’d be bad? Granted, they’re playing worse than you’d expect, but they were always going to be bad. I have a feeling people convinced themselves they were a slightly below average team. They are worse than last year’s team. That team at least had some talent/potential. This team has almost no talent. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we can now add Burger/Anderson/Avi Garcia's unduly influencing the Marlins' poor record too, lol... Would be almost impossible to imagine after that walk-off night in Iowa cornfields, August 12th or whatever it was of 2021. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People spent the entire winter talking about how we didn't sign any good players, the players we did sign sucked, and everyone in management was trash, yet are still freaking out with each bad play and game. I don't even want to see respectable bad. I want to see national embarrassment bad. I want this drug through the mud and questioned in gory detail and mocked league wide.

Nardiwashere Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 And the Cleveland Guardians are on pace for 126-36. Sox fans have turned into little whiny bitches. They are a bad team. This isn’t some shock. Crying about Jose Rodriguez getting DFA’d like they gave up Mike Trout, flipping out over the record a week into the season. Did anyone expect them to be 7-1? 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I tried to convince myself that a team that played good defense would at least be easier to root for than last year's squad even though I figured they'd struggle badly to score. So far these guys are unwatchable. I've cut the cable cord but did get youtubetv for a month for March Madness and have watched some Sox baseball. I can't justify keeping youtubetv to watch this corpseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Sox fans really should just accept being one of the worst franchises in sports, smile, bend over and just enjoy the dissent into total embarrassment of a 100+ year franchise.

Many of us are/were informed enough to realize the team was going to be dreadful before the season actually started. It's playing out like many of us expected. We just don't feel the need to whine and complain about it like a petulant child ad nauseum every 10 minutes. 4 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not pouting and pretending that Jose Rodriguez is a future stud and that a 1-7 record is some newsworthy occurrence. It’s a 162 game season and at least half the lineup can’t hit. They’ll have stretches like this and they’ll luck into a few small winning streaks and end up where most everyone thought they’d end up. People on this site are claiming the team won’t win 40 games. It’s a pathetic circle jerk of misery. Edited April 7 by Nardiwashere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players with even a chance at okness are more important than fillers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a pathetic circle jerk of misery. Missing their only offensive player with any star talent for two months is going to destroy this offense. You say half the lineup can’t hit….thats what was expected with the awful additions. Again, none of this is unexpected, but they lost the one player they couldn’t afford to lose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me record breaking bad. #TeamBurnThisBitchtotheGround See, here's where I am. Prior to part way through last year, I was the eternal optimist. Once KW and Hahn were fired I figured things might turn around, because JR only makes moves when embarrassed. Then this fucker and then the water cooler jug replacement gang have been trying to gaslight us all off-season into believing that Getz isn't a screw up that yes-manned his way into a job and is actually a wunderkind assembling a beautiful roster. That this rebuild will be different. Instead, this rebuild has the vision built on... David Eckstein and the early 2010s Royals. After hearing about how bad Yaz was and how awful he was for culture, I guess, Martin Maldonado being demonstrably worse is hilarious. If they're gonna be bad, I'm gonna have fun watching Chris Getz and Pedro Grifol ensure that they never touch another MLB franchise again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
