8 hours ago8 hr That’s since 2011…the better metric is which small and mid market teams can generate the most revenue?We all know the white Sox have been 28th through 30th by that metric since Getz took over, agreed??? Edited 8 hours ago8 hr by caulfield12

7 hours ago7 hr Have the standards fallen so far that this thread wasn't held for the first WC or AL Central title under Getz?Or sweeping the Yankees?We just swept the 14th or 15th team in the AL...isn't that to be expected after 2 1/2 years when it was posited by JR that even one year was just too much time to waste?And one sure result of being relatively close to first place means that Getz will be pilloried for trading Mune for less than his perceived value....

Good luck.WestEddy is owed an apology by many people here as well. You gave a lofty win total as your prediction, and it seems you may be close.People slammed Getz for his moves, but you rightfully defended him for how he did given payroll constraints. When you look at the win-to-payroll ratio of this team, he's done a great job. Edited 6 hours ago6 hr by ron883
