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!

Chris Getz traded Jacob Gonzalez to Pittsburgh so he could hit a 2 run home run off Cleveland. This 6 dimensional chess at its finest

WE, this is why people don’t take you seriously, just like @ron883 said. Yes, Getz has made a lot of good moves but you are literally acting like he has been infallible, which simply is not the case. The Cease trade was fucking cow dung. You know it and everyone knows it. No need to cuck for the guy. Preller held Getzy over a barrel and whispered in his ear that he was his daddy. It was basically the opposite of the James Shields trade. Also, I wouldn’t mind if they had Jake McCarthy right now over 275 plate appearances from Dominic Fletcher. Most of his moves lately have been good to great so perhaps he wised up with experience.

Eisert also just worked out of a jam to keep the Pirates up 3-0.

Okay, all of that's weird. Your honeys RonRon and RayRay aren't the only people on Earth who can joke.

Eisert gave up 3 the next inning. He still sucks.

Okay, sorry, it flew over my head then. Thought you were being serious. Ron is always trolling, so I didn’t see it coming from you…

Yes, he does. I think including Eisert actually lowered the return for the Sox. 🤣

I'm so glad I no longer have to watch him pitch for the Sox.

Mike thinks Gozo will always be a White Sox deep down. Poor bastard. (Mike)

How about two more Gonzo HR's today and a Cub 5 game winning streak.
