Mead's 5 4 4 3 box score line with three doubles definitely boosted some fantasy teams...

Has his BA almost up to .260 too.

Now have to retract that nickname.

Guy has a 137 wRC+. Pretty sure he's a lot more than a super utility guy.

He's -7.1 runs with the glove and is running a small half season sample with the bat. If he's really a 137 wRC+ sure dump him at 1B and call it good. But if he's closer to 115 then he's a platoon super sub type. I'm happy he's doing well, it shows the Sox are doing better on the margins, just like they did well to trade him rather than just lose him to a 26 man crunch on a team that suddenly has too many quality IF.

The Sox have gotten .4 WAR out of DH.

😂 And you would still be celebrating those trades as slam dunk wins for the Sox and strokes of genius by Getz.

Chris Getz has already dissembled and exposed the Braves and Dodgers. Getz is building every team in the league to be perfectly exploitable by the White Sox team he's built. Whichever team makes it to the playoffs and Series, it's already built to lose to our White Sox.

Yes Getz has done a spectacular job building this team. It's also OK to criticize him when he makes a bad move. You have a habit of getting defensive anytime anybody criticizes the front office.

God Gonzalez is a fucking stud…I love what we did in the draft, but would rather have Jacob over Landon and our 5th round pick.

Such a dumb ass trade.

You think that's defensive? LOL. When Getz makes a bad move, I'll let you know. I'm still waiting for one.

Does the Cease trade ring a bell?

Jury's still out. Thorpe's poised to be our August 30th addition, Iriarte looking like our future closer, Pereira and Murray will be great bench pieces next year, and Samuel Zavala hasn't injured anyone in a collision, yet.

Most of the guys you named can’t even get on the field and Zavala can’t even put up a .700 OPS in AA.

Then it's pretty impressive that we won that trade, and the players coming back haven't even done anything, yet. Just wait until they start putting up numbers.

Stroke of genius that trade was!
