In order to "go for it" with this team, this year, he should have traded for a catcher (and a legit starter) before the deadline, even if it required including top prospects to get deals done. Can't keep kicking the can down the road.Yep, everything Getz did was about playing for the future as much as this year with the year(s) of control that each player he acquired had remaining.But Boston gave up a huge package for Adley and Stephenson wasn’t even traded. I don’t have a problem with the Bart acquisition. He would have been a good add going forward if he didn’t break his hand after three games.Brazoban was a nice acquisition but don’t think Doyle was needed at all. But yes, Getz should be grilled for not acquiring a second starter, even if it was a rental starter. Edited 11 hours ago11 hr by WhiteSox2023

That may be the true decider on this move. But then again, even if Romo was out of options would any team claim him? Maybe a bad team since he’s still young and had prospect status…Quero will have to Kerrigan Romo soon

5 hours ago5 hr Castillo was very complimentary of Romo after his second start. I don't think Luis will start posting on Sox Talk about it, but the pitchers must feel comfortable with Romo behind the plate.
3 hours ago3 hr Pitchers must really not like throwing to Quero. Keeping Romo around doesnt make much sense

It's not since they brought up a lot of guys but no stud pitcher in that bunch. The Sox are not in the same league where you can be like the Dodgers trading guys in the minors who could play elsewhere.
11 minutes ago11 min One of these days I hope to get an explanation of why Romo continues to remain with the team while Quero is like a Yo-Yo with his trips to Charlotte and back.
