  1. Yeah, I don't quite get why we're waiting 9 months to negotiate with sponsors for the other 5.
  2. Assuming we can get the design elements hammered out by then.
  3. He's a white center, the bar is pretty low.
  4. Oh come, on he's totally a creepy weirdo
  5. Alshon I think it's too early to sell high on pretty much anyone. People are too leery to trade this early.
  6. I'd guess he gets one more since they're cramming Jaxon back in there and have been using a 6 man rotation.
  7. Craig Ferguson quit late night to be a syndicated game show host?
  8. I'll be there Wednesday, good call guys!
  9. When Illinois misses the playoffs at 13-0 because of our scrub conference mates I'm gonna be pissed
  10. We've reached the Fred portion of the season
  11. We should honor him at the 00s homestand.
  12. Or you could think we'll be in the running for a 2nd wild card, and putzing away 3 months might not be the best idea. Who is recommending keeping him down until July? Oh, right, hyperbole instead of rational discussion. Got it. I assuming that includes a learning curve once arriving in the majors rather than 3 months in Iowa. It does which I directly addressed in previous posts, but oh right knee-jerk, bleachernationism instead of rational discussion.
  13. Lynchburg is the only Braves affiliate they don't own, so they won't have much attachment to it.

  15. wait what? Soler signed a 9/30 contract as an IFA, so people are assuming he becomes a free agent with less than 6 ML years service because reasons. Is the trick that he used up his three option years in 2012/13/14 and therefore had to stick in the majors at the outset of 2015 and therefore would by default reach 6 years of service time by the end of 2020? No, Soler gets 4 options. People are assuming that because his 9 year contract ends in 2020 that that's the end of the control, similar to Cespedes. But it's known that Soler can opt into arbitration when eligible. As it is, he'll reach FA after 2020 because he was called up, so we may never know, but I still don't understand why you'd assume he gets FA at (for example) 5 years 120 days, just because his original contract was signed for 9 years. David Price signed a 6 year major league deal when he was drated with the same arbitration provision. He didn't randomly become a free agent after 2012, he remained Rays property.

  17. And Anthopolous bringing up Norris just to pitch out of the pen? For what 0.4 wins? Worst of all are these 2 dopes in Chicago who brought up Alcantara, Baez, and Soler all in a lost season I know you know the Soler situation is different, as has been explained a couple of times already. Well no, it's been asserted several times that Soler randomly gets FA after the 2020 season with nothing to back it up.

  20. Ben Cherington is in that club too. That buffoon isn't going to have Mookie Betts locked up for 2021 now.
  21. Gotta be in danger of falling below our pythag.
  22. No good options since some guys are carrying 3-4 TEs. Thanks. Eifert's out for awhile, so he'll at least have no real competition
  23. Gresham
