White Sox general manager Chris Getz expressed disappointment Monday in starter Garrett Crochet's camp's "tactics" in letting it be known how the pitcher wants to be used for the rest of the season. If he's traded to a contender, Crochet wants a contract extension in order to pitch in the postseason, according to league sources. He also has no desire to pitch out of the bullpen as he wants to remain on a starter's routine. Getz found out about Crochet's stance when reports surfaced via the media last week. "The communication had been very strong between Garrett and I and his agency," Getz said. "I was a little surprised and taken aback by how they went about it, considering I had a conversation with his agent the night before. That's not exactly the tactic I would have taken, being a former player, just because the dialogue has been so honest and real and careful and mindful of his career.
