Sox In The Basement

Chris Getz has identified outfield help and starting pitching as main tagerts this offseason, and to do that right will cost money. Will owner Jerry Reinsdorf, who expressed his love for fans following the series win over Houston, put his money where his mouth is and support the young GM after a successful season? While Reinsdorf has been cheap in past seasons, history also points to what opens the pocketbook. Those circumstances may be back (hopefully) on the South Side.
