    Oops, Eberflus

    Unfortunately I believe Alonso is much more likely than Soto and I'm not willing to let 3B be covered by Wisdom/Madrigal all year if the Morel experiment fails. With that said, I think minus Soto, this is what we're pretty likely to see.

    He's bad defensively in the OF. I don't think he loses any value at all by shifting to 1B if he can be a neutral defender.

    I'm nearly positive Trestman is gone, but I'd actually be fairly surprised if they cut ties with Poles. It's not that I think he's doing a good job, I just don't think he has been as glaringly awful as Trestman.

    I agree Young has been super underwhelming, but Stroud has been kind of great. He's 4th in the NFL in passing yards and has yet to throw a pick.

    I guess I'm the only one who instantly thought of Andre 3000 and started hearing "Hey Ya" playing in their head

    Yamamoto is the #1 priority, because as CubinNY said, they only cost money while filling a huge need. I'd say priority number 2 is a big bat at either 1B or 3B. I'm cool with Alonso if you can get it done without involving PCA/Horton, but if you're going to make a big splash using prospect capital then please grab Juan Soto instead and throw him at 1B. I was game for Chapman as a cash only addition but I've soured on him a lot. 30 years old, coming off a 110 wRC+ and hasn't broken 120 since 2019. He's a nice player, but not the impact bat the team needs. I'd love to take a chance on Moncada if he comes at a reasonable price. He seems to have worn out his welcome on the south side. Realistically I'd feel pretty great about this roster going into the season C- Gomes 1B- Alonso 2B: Hoerner SS: Dansby 3B: Moncada RF: Seiya CF: PCA LF: Happ DH: Morel Bench: Amaya, Madrigal, Tauchman, Mervis, Canario SP: Steele, Yamamoto, Stroman, Hendricks, Taillon(god I'd love to dump this contract)

    2 boxers/managers throwing a fight is the not the same as the commissioner and all the major players in the NHL getting together to rig a sport. If 2 boxers do this, you kick them out of the sport and while there is damage to the sport as a whole, it's mostly the two involved. If the NHL rigging came from the very top, hockey would more or less die. The fan's faith in the outcomes of all games would be gone, the gambling scene would be completely gone, etc.

    I would be absolutely livid if he was brought back again to coach next season.
  10. Tryptamine
    I had them at 77 wins, so they outperformed my expectations. With that said, I'm not particularly optimistic about next year. The rotation needs massive investment and replacing Bellinger's production is going to be hard.
  11. Tryptamine
    What? They had their 2nd sack of the season today. They're up to .5 a sack a game average. Do you expect them to average a whole sack a game?
  12. Tryptamine
    100% ok with going on 4th and 1. My issue is that the play call is a run up the gut. There's no imagination at all in Getsy. Give Fields the ball and let him throw or if it isn't there, let him run. If you don't trust him in the best game of his NFL career to pick up that 1 yard then that's it.
  13. Tryptamine
    Is Kmet aware that there is processing and throwing time and ball in the air time that when he decides to suddenly pull up, there's nothing Fields can do about it?
  14. Tryptamine
    Tim Wakefield succumbed to the cancer. He was 57.
  15. Tryptamine
    I've watched that Fields' s int several times now and that throw is perfect if Kmet doesn't stop his route.
  16. Tryptamine
    CJ Stroud continues to be fantastic. 16/30 306 yards 2TD 0INT. He still hasn't thrown an INT in the NFL.
  17. Tryptamine
    Kmet bailed out of the route.....
  18. Tryptamine
    Fields is having the best game of his career and they just completely ignore him on the last drive. It's completely baffling.
  19. Tryptamine
    Epic collapse
  20. Tryptamine
    They completely took the ball out of Fields's hands. Idiotic.
  21. Tryptamine
    2 and 17 and they run the ball.
  22. Tryptamine
    is this Oline on the take or what? Penalty number 3 this drive.
  23. Tryptamine
    Dropped ball and now a False start
  24. Tryptamine
    Now the hold on 1st down, 1 and 20. Straight up implosion.
  25. Tryptamine
    #1 pick still in play.
