    Chris Getz is bad at this. People mistaken the ability to hire smart people for draft purposes with being good as the sox GM right now. This guy has gotten taken to the woodshed in almost every deal

Just begging for consistency on evaluations. These guys didn't just instantly depreciate because Chris Getz traded them.

Is this the Sopranos? Godfather II?

You’re on the right track!

Actually, you’re not even close. It’s Billy Madison.

Here is a sketch of what I am hoping to see Fuller bring Doyle back to in some form. I mainly hope to see him more up right with his hands up.

Also hope we see him start to hit the ball in the air… I’m not expecting they’ll bring changes into his offensive game for a couple of weeks and for now they’ll likely just let his weak bat ride while seeking value from his defense.

I’m pretty sure you said the same thing about Acuna already. Even with his recent hot streak, Acuna has a sweet .550 OPS and did not end up being the Sox CF of the future as you had predicted. Afterall, if he was, Getz wouldn’t have acquired this new bum CF.

110% correct.

Ray Ray the Robot doesn't have time for injuries and personal problems. It's easy to be skeptical. Hope is seeing light in darkness and letting the light heal. Human beings understand that life and baseball reflect growing from failures.

Everyone has family issues, illnesses, and worse. That's part of life, not baseball. I am not sure how to take the explanation/excuse that his wife had a miscarriage. First of all, broadcasting private family medical matters is just plain wrong, especially to that extent. He invaded his own wife's privacy. Secondly, that is not a legit excuse for his own foibles as a baseball player. Sorry for his wife's miscarriage, but life is a tough road, especially for some of us...and that is nothing but a bump in the road in the grander scheme.

I blame this all on private equity.

Just kidding…but PE is probably buying three consecutive World Series titles, and, if not LA, likely Fenway Sports Group/John Henry/Billy Beane, etc.

This guy has gotten taken to the woodshed in almost every deal he's made, and the ones that weren't bad ended up successful because the player put in a s%*# ton of work 2 years after the deal (vargas). Every new move solidifies this for me. He doesn't know how to value MLB talent or assets. Just my opinion of course.

The legend of Chris Getz now rests almost entirely on Vargas, Colson, Peters/Doyle, lucking into Mune, Luis Castillo returning to form and Cholowsky over Lackey, which I’m still not convinced was the right move (irrespective of one week of A ball at bats).

On the starting pitching side, only Burke has made progress, with Davis Martin continuing to implode.
