    Arrieta looked really good there.
  3. Tim
    Okay - that commercial on getting rid of the coats/ties was pretty funny.

    KB sucked during the spring, too. Which means it's been a while since he hit well. Hard to blame Willy for getting doubled off there.
  5. Tim
    KB just might be broken for reals

    Can't believe there's no thread for Hank Aaron yet. I'd start one, but I'm not coming up with a good enough title to honor the man. -- eta Nevermind. I'm a moron. Saw the article on the front page of MLB.com and assumed it just happened.

    Someone check in on Tom. The dream is done.

    He's equally terrible against all pitchers, so don't particularly care about what hand he is, unless he can trick some dumb manager to make a dumb reliever choice. Would have rather just given PJ Higgins (12.1% BB rate, .895 OPS in Iowa in 2019) a shot, but....whatever. Career veteran backup catcher gonna like veteran backup catchers.

    I thought I remembered you liking Mena.

    Bulls '20-'21

    Any idea why Coby isn't playing tonight?

    You're more of a sentimental fool for offering that much (really, for that long).
  14. Tim
    I swear Bohannon has been playing there since the 90's.
  15. Tim
    Sounds like he'd be a great fit at Wisconsin or Iowa, though he may not be quite old enough for those programs.

    Blackhawks win.

    Bulls '20-'21

    Who, exactly, is the best player in this trade?
  18. Tim
    The '21 season is cut short, also. It's not a huge deal, but the injury risk wasn't that substantial, either. It was just bad freaking luck.

    Sending him to the tournament was probably the right thing to do. No it wasn't. Getting additional experience and playing time in a year when they've missed a significant amount of development is an unequivocally bad idea? Are you arguing that purely because of the injury risk or is there something else? Because then I'm going to ask you if no team players should ever be allowed to play in any tournaments whatsoever. Positives: - Additional playing time in a year with less development time than normal - Having that development taking place in a pressurized tournament atmosphere - Getting your player some additional high level coaching he wouldn't otherwise get - Building a positive relationship with that player if he wants to play - Building positive relationships within the sport in general in supporting the tournaments - Building positive relationships with players in general in supporting their guys Negatives: - Injury risk You can make an argument that the injury risk outweighs everything else, but it really isn't 100% clear that is the case.

    "Sorry for sending you to a tournament for children, by the time you'll be back we'll be in full on desperation mode so get ready for that, but hey, at least I can blame your (totally avoidable) injury for missing the playoffs again" Sending him to the tournament was probably the right thing to do.
  21. Tim
    Well, that simplifies things a little.
  22. Tim
    Why risk injury? Even though he’s one dimensional, he’ll get drafted and make some money and develop his game at the next level. Is he a 1st round material? I'm not 100% sure he is talent/skills-wise right now, but you also can't teach height and size so... :dontknow: Only 1st round pick contract is guaranteed IIRC. He needs to stay another year and work on expanding on his skill set IMO. The mocks I've seen have him mid- to late-second round. If he stays and improves his shooting & passing he could be first round easily.

    LOL @ Willy on the beach on his horse
  24. Tim
    YEAH BABY!!!!!

    Curbelo is going to be amazing next year with another season of experience
