Again...the organization pays people to do this analysis.  Most of us have very limited coverage of all players in both leagues.  I am advocating for Jerry to free up some resources so Getz and company can do their jobs.  

And yet they don't feel they are close enough to spend.

Who are they?  Jerry said that Getz was the fast track back to respectable baseball on the day he hired him.

Jerry said that the 2023 season was personally embarrassing for him so he hired Getz to bring the Sox back to respectability and winning without wasting a year.  Getz proceeded to lower payroll and have two losing seasons after that.  Are you going to believe anything Jerry says?

Indeed.  He’s a snake oil salesman.

From Top 10-12 to the #29 payroll.

😆And you believed him?

"I didn't have to interview these people because I knew them all, and I knew that they were qualified, but what I didn't know was I had somebody inside who could start right away making things happen, and that's the reason why Chris was selected."

Reinsdorf is correct in the sense that if it probably wasn't worth interviewing the people he already knew, because they'd probably all be worse hires than Getz (he only name-dropped Branch Rickey, who died in 1965). A real process would have identified people Reinsdorf didn't know, but apparently there wasn't time."
