I bet they pivoted to Mullins cause Getz was dicking around with stupid demands.

no way to even surmise that until we see what another team gave up

    Anyone who thinks Tony LaRussa brought anything positive to this organization this time around is truly derranged.

  • I may be in the minority but I have no issue with them keeping Luis. They have nothing committed to payroll next year and no one knocking at the door to be an every day CFer. Also, I would consider ke

  • Oh no. Chris Getz maybe asked for a desirable target in trade negotiations. It's truly unfortunate dialogue ends completely after one player is inquired about.

10000% going to be Mullins.

Seen more online other GMs are trying to take advantage of Getz cause he's new and doesn't have experience. Lowball offers to him for players

That's probably also happening too....at some point the clock forces both sides to get real if you really want someone. 

If opposing GMs are really giving us shitty offers, keep our guys. We got enough junk in this org.

Given the relief prices out there, I'd be most disappointed to hear the Sox didn't entertain talks on Taylor (especially if they have him as a Pen arm, which it seems like to me they do). 

 

If anyone asked, I'm sure we'd entertain talks on anybody (at least I'd sure hope so).  It's not like we have untouchables.

Wouldn't you rather Getz ask for the moon, and settle later if no one meets the price, as opposed to just taking a garbage offer? I don't really get why any Sox fan would have a problem with the approach he is taking.

Because the longer you hold out trying to get your unrealistic demands accepted, teams move on to other players that other GM’s are actually willing to part with for something realistic.  Then you wind up with your hand holding your schvonce.

I think the criticism is they asked for the moon and the other team went somewhere else and never came back, although this hasn't been proven to be true yet.

Idle thought: seems that the Getz administration does not do much leaking

No, because Robert is FAR more likely to be bad than good or hurt himself next season. His track record is terrible. Get what you can and move on, they already gambled this year he would bounce back he fell flat on his face.

That’s what Jerry pays Bob Nightengale for.

The always-bad Luis Robert Jr.

I don't know, we probably leaked that we're increasingly likely to hold Robert to try to build some leverage here in the next couple hours.  

would be appropriate for this to be resolved on the 88th page. let's get it done.

Will we see any deals from Sox today? Is Getz OOO?

More like the bad for two straight seasons Luis Robert Jr.  Ever heard of recency bias?  It’s definitely a thing in baseball.

Rosenthal just said on Foul Territory he expects Robert to be dealt and essentially thinks the sox are posturing by saying they'll pick up Robert's option
