  1. Picking up Kemp as a bench guy was totally fine, and perhaps TPTB have decided Happ is strictly OF, but I'd rather see Happ in the lineup, personally.
  2. Big whoop. Twitter tells me Brandon Morrow is coming back soon. /greenfont
  3. What OMC said, numbers be damned. Give me Javy and I'll take my chances.
  4. [tweet] [/tweet]
  5. Having exchanges with these sock puppets isn't even fun for me as sport. What I'm kinda sorta curious about what makes these accounts so active all of a sudden? It's manic posting over the past few days from one of them. Then occasionally we'll have a dormant account pop up for a short spell, a bunch of frenzied, targeted posts, then go dark again. Talk about being triggered. Something is making them act in this way.
  6. I don't know. I just wish these new accounts would have the decency to name themselves "Breitbart" or something immediately descriptive. Hell, there's an account at Gateway Redbirds named "MAGA." I appreciate that kind of thing; I can just reflexively ignore and go on my way.
  7. Hmmm...I asked about Maddon's probable usage in the trade thread. #notshocked
  8. "SJW"...."triggered".....this douchebag is hitting all marks.
  9. I know, total [expletive]. The least they could've done is gotten no-hit to at least make it interesting as a baseball story.
  10. We're fucked. [tweet] [/tweet]
  11. Yep. This for me is another one of said scenes.
  12. Happ's on-base skills to be used...right in front of Darvish.
  13. Keep doin' you Mets, keep doin' you.
  14. Strop was bad again, and Maddon was dumb in his bullpen usage again, but you aren't gonna win many scoring 2 runs. Whatever. There are plenty of holes in this team. Get a couple cheap outside pieces without giving up anything remotely interesting long term and hope to get hot. That's all I got.
  15. We feel confident Maddon will use him appropriately?
  16. I don't think Edith is missing the point. I think Edith is getting exactly what Edith wants out of this whole exchange. Continuing to debate Edith in good faith is a waste of time.
  17. Same. My wish as a fan? I wish that I only had to think about the crazy/awesome/borderline stupid horsefeathers Javy does on the base paths; that the height of my ire would be during ridiculous debates about Bryant's clutchiness, or Maddon's lineups. But once this horsefeathers becomes known, I simply cannot memory-hole it, wish it away and not have it impact my opinion of someone, whether they're a star athlete, owner, spouse of either, etc. Yeah, the point is sports are supposed to be an escape. It's just that, for me, I refuse to dismiss inconvenient truths to convince myself it's all in good fun and entertainment.
  18. I'm personally not stressed about it, but I reserve the right to think anyone who supports Trump at this stage is human trash. Just my opinion. In general, I don't place sportsball higher on the hierarchy of things I care about to handwave awful horsefeathers those connected to my favorite team do, whether it be spousal abuse or supporting an authoritative monster. Other fans can fan the way they want, but I also reserve the right to think their priorities are fucked -up.
  19. Yeah I have zero affinity for Castellanos, but if it means less Almora, fine. I just question that assumption, I guess. Maddon's gonna do whatever.
  20. I'm glad to see this clown is continuing the trend of new user accounts here being utter horsefeathers.
  21. NICE
  22. Upon further review, yes, yes he was. That it took extreme stupid play for it to happen speaks volumes as to the values of this organization (and sports fans too for that matter).
  23. I'm not at all confident a single bat acquisition (out of the likely candidates, that is) this deadline is gonna move the needle. I'd love an impact bat, but that ain't gonna happen. The good news is the Brewers and Cardinals suck.
