Maybe just maybe they're feeling a LITTLE bit of pressure to provide some entertainment value before Smith, Taylor, Schultz and eventually Braden/Bonemer in 2026... Plus, this is their big opportunity to move some chips in and see what they can get offensively before guys like Tauchman and Slater and Robert get dumped on other teams.

"Days being numbered" does not in anyway imply he's got another 3-4 years left on the job. Those are two very different things. And with Jerry keeping control until at least 2029, I don't think Getz is looking to put his house on the market quite yet.

Yeah, I don't see Jerry hiring another GM.

The Crochet trade on paper is looking pretty good early - for both teams - but Sox needed positional talent and while Montgomery is slumping, he is high upside and high character and Meidroth isn’t sexy but a damn solid ball player and OBP machine and Teel looks like a potential long time stud catcher. Hopefully we are even more excited a year from now about those three and I’m still thinking Wiki can be a solid reliever in time.

I've always equated the phrase " days being numbered" as meaning 1000 + days. You don't? 😉
