I thought Getz would make another trade or free agent  signing before Soxfest. It doesn't look like that is going to happen. I also thought the  promotional schedule would be released by now.

They typically release the promo schedule the 1st night of Soxfest. You'll have it very soon.

Yes, I have standards.  Congratulations on finally figuring it out.  Now ask yourself why after you made this list talking about continuing to rage post reply to all of my posts, you spend so much time obsessing over me.

Is it either you enjoy unhappiness , your standards are too high or you need another team that meets your standards. 

Remember,  no one is forcing you to be unhappy.  

Rage post ? Is that a thing ?  Isn't that what you do to @tray and anyone who challenges you. Everyone knows you need to have the last word because you'll bicker forever. And I just told you I care about your happiness.

Your standards weren't so high on the last rebuild. You understood the whole better to suck and reap the rewards of sucking than stay mediocre but now you rage post about 100 loss seasons in a rebuild. 

Obsessed ? Dont flatter yourself. If I was obsessed I'd announce to the whole board that I researched you,discovered your 1st name and an old twitter handle, (I didn't), like your little sidekick did to me . LOL oh no he really got me there 🤣

And we'll  have JR out of the way once the Ishbias take over.

Happy days dead ahead ! 😘

Thanks. No loss there if he's taken. He'll probably clear honestly.

Also has no options remaining and it's pretty clear there is no room for him.

Schriffen called Ramos a future star in 2024.

Obsessed people need to keep responding to people who aren't talking to them.

Now back to your question, spending so much time stalking my posts are you.  

Is it either you enjoy unhappiness , your standards are too high or you need another team that meets your standards. 

Remember,  no one is forcing you to be unhappy.  

You speaking of the need to keep bickering, but are still responding to posts when not being responded to, to insert your unsolicited opinions, looking to argue more.

Again.

If you are truly happy, you don't need to worry about anyone else but yourself, which tells me the lady doth protest too much.  If you are looking to obsess and bicker, keep responding to posts not addressed to you.

🤣 You just described yourself you know that. Mr. 1 million posts. You respond to everyone who wasnt speaking directly to you. Look at your post count and mine.

You just did it to @Poppysox in another thread !

So you are me.  That's flattering,  but creepy.  Granted I am not the one telling everyone to shut up and march in a quiet line and obey our overlords words.  I will think for myself.  I guess you can change your signature now

Correct but he is held in high regard by Brooks (who hired him) and letting him go without an 'out' for the organization makes certain people look bad and that could be a factor. 

Unless he does something incredibly stupid on the air I don't see him going until Ishbia takes over or he decides to leave on his own.

All he has to do is make it through next season without spilling any Campfire Milkshake on himself and I think he gets extended.

How anyone would choose him over Benetti is beyond me

I was told by an individual actually connected to the Sox broadcasting operation that a number of more qualified individuals let the Sox know they'd be interested in the job and applied but for some reason Schriffen got the job. 

Why he did is a great question.

It's clear the relationship between Benetti and the organization was fractured when Jason wanted to get a deal done before he talked to Fox and the Sox told him that wasn't necessary. That he should make a deal then come back to the Sox and they'd figure things out.

So that's what he did. Then when he went back to the Sox, told them he'd need to miss 40 games because of commitments to Fox the Sox told him no and basically hung him out to dry.

There was no going back after that.

Maybe the Sox felt the deal with Fox wouldn't require him missing that number of games? No one really knows.

Listen to him parrot every.single.positive.talking.point.  

That's why.

The Sox want someone who is only going to say what he is paid to say.

They don't want them thinking.

They don't want them to be honest 

They just want the company line repeated ad nauseum.

They could just realize he stinks and listen to their base, but that may be giving the brass too much credit. I just hope they can admit they tried something, it didn't work, and just move on to someone else.

Here are the extra details on his contract…

https://www.si.com/mlb/whitesox/onsi/news/white-sox-sign-closer-seranthony-dominguez

Quote

Update (Jan. 29): Dominguez's contract includes a $1 million signing bonus. He will receive $7 million in 2026 and $10 million in 2027, with a $12 million mutual option for 2028 or a $2 million buyout.

So the deal is slightly backloaded.  He gets $8 million this season — $7 million salary and a $1 million signing bonus.

Obviously we don’t know how much the Sox plan on spending, but this would mean that around $11 million is left of the $20 million freed up from trading Robert for Acuna.

Research doesnt take long always.How often do you see other people posting  whats on someone elses profile on here. What was your motivation in doing that ?  It wasnt a friendly gesture . You were hoping to find something on my twitter to use against me most likely. You know it and I know it.

What was your motivation in entering it into your public profile?  I often click on poster’s profiles to see and read a listing of their recent posts.

In any case, stick to the topic please, Ron.  Other posters have already mentioned they are sick of the bickering taking up space in threads.

Money probably bottom line. One less thing to do covering his missed time with a full time guy who costs less. 

They were probably looking for an out with him anyway and missing 25% of games was their out.

You just avoided my question . That right there tells me you had a motive . Everybody looks at other people profiles, they don't post the info to the rest of Soxtalk. 

Just like I said majority trying to silence the majority and playing the victim . I guess you left off the part of my profile that had my motivation for putting that info there. The part that said  being on Soxtalk was like being with friends. 

But I see too many bullies here now and already posted about that . I like the underdogs. That helps being a Sox fan but it doesnt help those who chose to be with someone they no longer trust despite their obvious pain. I'm not  in pain because I'm seeing an honest effort to get better under trying conditions . They all signed on knowing it would be challenging. They just do their jobs one day at a time trying to mske those young adults better at the things it takes to be a good player and teammate. The money part of team building is out of their hands. I support that.
