  1. So... if we sweep Cleveland, and they fall further back (11.5 gb in division, tied with Boston at 3gb) how do we convince Cle that our farm is worth buying for Ramirez? Only PCA is off limits? Maybe not?
  2. Or trading them away (Paraedes, Morel, Cam Smith...)
  3. I know I wouldn’t trade Cassie for Alcantara straight up. It still feels like a trap.
  4. Ideal scenario is Tucker is resigned, ONKC moves to LF full time when Happ’s contract expires, he’s the next up when an OF is needed. He and Wiggins are my only untouchables in the minors, Mo Baller is close.
  5. I too didn’t want the horse Maddon rode through the ground out there either. But I don't believe that's what you mean.
  6. So you didn't cheer for him during the World Series run? C'mon.
  7. If you’re into BBQ, Slow’s BBQ has been a go to. (At least it used to be, haven’t been there since the Pandemic, sadly.)
  8. Why does Alcantara feel like a trap?
  9. Thank you for taking the time to do suchness. I appreciate you.
  10. Gonna call his homers, 'Long dongs?'
  11. Its important to me too. Trivial is always important.
  12. Does that leg kick seem significantly muted?
  13. I hear the music in every restaurant and mall. I, unfortunately, cannot push sound to the background. It's not ideal.
  14. Coen feels like he's cosplaying an announcer. Don't like the cut of his gib. He feels like the guy that is too comfortable with everyone, that it makes everyone uncomfortable. He seems like the guy that tells his best friends' secrets to the cool kids just for some short lived attention.

  16. Ha! Sure, look how amazing those two, bargain bin signings have been for a single month! How could i have ever overlooked it. I'm simply not myopic enough, But. I'm not gonna start sucking dicks over 29 games of production vs the track record of Jed and Co, the group that hasn't produced a runner-up in the division during his tenure. Why wouldn't his track record count when I was, you know. addressing his track record in signings? (34 months? My GOD! Sooo long ago... way back in... 2022? Sooo not relevant.)
  17. With the amount of wasted money in horsefeathers FA (Villar, Mancini etc) Jed has loaded the roster with, I'd rather crunch a little and have a star, than spread jt around to mediocre players at the end of their careers (Simmons, Hosmer, that ****** catcher from Cincinnati I can't remeber) Yes. Pay the star. You can always salary dump him in a few years, then DFA the PTBNL, or Poteet him, or whatever.
  18. I believe his best position is as the utility infielder. Let someone with a bat play 2b. Defensive sub, pinch runner. Or bat him 8/9. Sick of seeing our anemic middle infielders batting 5/6 while PCA and the Catchers, all wildly more productive, bat lower.
