4 hours ago4 hr If I’m the Sox clubhouse I’m actually livid that this is the level of commitment they have to winning. Drew Romo even has to know he’s a wasted roster spot.If Romo really wants to help this team win, he’ll find a way to pull a hamstring or a groin this week. Edited 4 hours ago4 hr by CityFan53
4 hours ago4 hr Quero has options left, Romo doesn't. Quero gets consistent playing time without pressure, Bart plays most of the time, and Romo is gone for good when Teel comes back.

Anyway, Bart should be starting most games in August and that should be an improvement over the present situation.

4 hours ago4 hr I think ultimately they probably think Quero has some ceiling and want to give him a chance to figure it out. also that Romo is pedestrian bad behind the dish whereas Quero has been awful.
4 hours ago4 hr Romo was in Charlotte this year while on the Sox 40 man. Pretty sure he not only has options but we already used it for the year so he'd be fine to go back down
4 hours ago4 hr The bigger roster issue is having 4 most mediocre catchers on an already crowded 40 man
3 hours ago3 hr Getz concluded that he was not going to trade prospect gold for 4-5 weeks of a catcher. If Teel comes back at or near 100% on or around Sept 1, that would be a big boost.
3 hours ago3 hr Boston gave up a sh1t ton of prospects to get Rutsch who is maybe about as good as Teel but no better. Kyle could be awesome if he could just stay on the field..

Where are the posts of people saying Getz should have thrown a bunch of prospects at acquiring Adley Rutschman or even Tyler Stephenson?

Where are the posts of people saying Getz should have thrown a bunch of prospects at acquiring Adley Rutschman or even Tyler Stephenson?It seems like the pulse of the community is that they would have liked another starter, and everybody seemed resigned to punt on a catcher. I just caught up on the trade strings. The prices being paid were nuts. And to a comment you've made a couple of times, that you would have liked the pieces traded for Doyle (Adams, the DSL SS) used to get a starting pitcher. I think those two would have had to be the 3rd and 4th pieces in a Carlson-headlined deal for run-of-the-mill, 2nd tier dudes.

Hopefully we won’t need one and Thorpe/Smith can fill the role. I don’t think Getz ever considered a rental player, which seems fairly obvious with all four players that were acquired being under control for future year(s).
