    Because of all your charming personalities, of course.

    More information about "Tampa Bay Interested In & "Doing Homework" on Marcus Stroman"
    It's becoming rapidly apparent that the Cubs have two of the hottest commodities on the trade deadline market in Marcus Stroman and Cody Bellinger, especially with the Angels gaining new life and sweeping the Yankees, returning to the fringes of the American League Wild Card race. During an episode of the Onto Waveland Podcast (29 minute mark), it is mentioned that while the Rays do not appear to be interested in Cody Bellinger, they are interested in acquiring Stroman. The Rays are floundering a bit lately, losing their season-long hold on first place in the American League East. They need starting pitching and have a farm system that is miles-deep in typical Rays fashion.

    I do know Brandon Warne! We have a love/hate relationship with him over at Twins Daily. One of the core TD guys has been in a decades-long pissing match with Warne. It's rather silly, if you want my honest opinion about it. Both of them go at each other constantly on Twitter for reasons I cannot grasp. Yet another reason why I use Twitter for business reasons and try to avoid it otherwise.

    Yep, very different over here. A bit of background on me is that I'm actually a Twins and Brewers (ducks tomatoes) fan. I started running a Twins website close to 20 years ago, merged with a bunch of folks to create Twins Daily, and then a few years ago, started noticing legacy communities dropping like flies. You know, kinda exactly what is happening with PSD. Over the years, I've become pretty good at running sites (I was a web developer by trade before moving into this role) and figured "hey, maybe I can stop some of this from happening" and started applying my knowledge to other communities. Last year we bought Brewer Fanatic and earlier this year, @Tim was gracious enough to sell us NSBB (he formed the site 20 years ago and is still active 'round these parts). So now we're here! Please encourage your PSD friends to check us out. I *hate* that these communities are dying and in their place, Reddit and Facebook and their ilk are taking the place of independent communities that play by their own rules, not the rules of a corporate behemoth out of silicon valley.

    Yeah, PSD is running some ancient version of... vBulletin, maybe? I know I've used the software platform they're on right not but I've used most software platforms and they all kinda blur together at this point. The software they're using is at least a decade old.

    In the past seven days, NSBB has drawn in more unique users than it did during the 2016 World Series.

    Trading with the Rays is overblown, they're not magicians. I consider them much smarter than the Twins front office overall and the Twins have won every trade they've had with the Rays in the past five years (and by a lot).

    And now MLB.com has changed the time, starters, etc. I thought maybe I was on the wrong page this morning but that's not the case, as I posted the Brewers/Phillies game from the same info and all of that is correct. MLB.com just had the wrong game listed for awhile.
  11. Brock Beauchamp
    The Cards are in town for four games, kicking off eight games against the Cards in less than two weeks. Basically, the Cubs have control over how much the Cardinals will sell at the deadline. We'd really hate to see that opportunity wasted. Edit: What the hell is going on, MLB.com? The entirely wrong game was live on the page this morning, now it's a night game with Stroman.

    State-sponsored cyber warfare, for sure.

    STL is pretty hot right now, I hope the Cubs punch them in the face a few times and remind them they’re really bad this year.

    Welcome!

    Pro Sports Daily. It's a series of forums that used to be quite popular but over the years, it appears most of the communities died. Now they're shutting down the entire operation, apparently.

    Welcome to NSBB! There is a post approval system here so your first two posts must be approved. It's mostly a spam (and idiot) counter-measure. Given that we're seeing an influx of PSD people, I'll try to manually approve each of you as you post here to skip that process.
  19. Brock Beauchamp
    Oh no, I was talking about PSD. I know you two jackals like to poke at each other. 😄

    First, sorry to hear that your platform is shutting down. Losing legacy communities on the internet sucks. But hey, we're here! Welcome to NSBB! Even though I own the place, I'm relatively new here, too... all I can say is don't let the geezers harass you too much. They're (mostly) toothless anyway. Please, invite your friends to join us at NSBB. We're undergoing an overhaul and expanding our coverage. We won't be going anywhere for a long, long time, that much I promise. If you have any questions at all, respond here or PM me at any time. My door is always open.
  21. Brock Beauchamp
    Never mind, I see that it's being talked about in this thread!
  22. Brock Beauchamp
    Funny, I just PMed a user about this. Can you PM me a quick rundown of the situation over there? Obviously, we welcome any and all, I just want to have a bit of awareness of what's happening. Thanks!
  23. Brock Beauchamp
    Ah, the classic baseball-ism that the more incompetent a catcher becomes at the plate, the more god-like attributes they are assumed to have while behind it.
  24. Brock Beauchamp
    Can someone explain to me what Barnhart beings to the table that Amaya can’t, I’m just not seeing it.
  25. Brock Beauchamp
    I split this into its own topic because I had a task item set for tomorrow to write up almost this exact post but TT wrote it for me! Instead of discussing what the Cubs are going to do, what would you do at the deadline? What do you want to see?
