  1. I literally cannot think of breaking news that could make me more happy than this.
  2. As much as I want to hate everything about this organization right now I can't find much of anything to criticize, other than St. Peter continuing to be the messenger.
  3. This org wants us to believe they are 3-4 players away from contending, but that's highly unlikely.
  4. Considering he is not marketable because no way anyone else wants his contract, and this org isn't eating it, he'll be back next year and struggle to play 80-100 games all over again.
  5. The organization will either lean into the idea that they are just a piece or two away from contending, and add a mid level pitcher, i.e. Sonny Gray 2 years after they should have signed him... Or...lean into the idea that you develop position players internally, and add pitching via trade. If they do that, they're dealing Pablo for 3 AAA prospects, and probably a quality bullpen arm or two for A/AA level talent.
  6. I've said it a bunch of times now...don't underestimate what the MLB pension plan means to the guy managing or the guy he can bring along to grab a few more years of service, too.
  7. Putting the equivalent of St. Peter and company on a committee of team representatives solves this, and hopefully dilutes their inability to make good decisions.
  8. I'm surprised. I figured he'd had enough of the grind by now.
  9. This makes too much sense, but then again why not standardize it across MLB and then just distribute it in the appropriate regions?
  10. Unfortunately when "we" decided to fund it, we knew who we were partnering with. It's hard to argue otherwise now.
  11. Yeah that was scathing. I like it.
  12. Word I heard just the other day is Wes Johnson left because the guys with the iPads were making all of the decisions. Sorta makes sense.
  13. Screw these *******s. It's about time someone calls them out on their ****.
  14. Firing the manager is likely the best way to do what really needs to be done, which is for ownership to make a statement via actions that they see there is an issue that something needs to change here. Changes in other front office personnel would be another place to start. St. Peter for sure, but Falvine likely need a shakeup, too.
  15. Lose lose lose and put this dog out of its misery!
  16. I believe this is the key. They appear not to be.
  17. Lose lose lose and keep the fire burning!
  18. At this point I'm rooting for them to lose out to avoid the ridiculousness of a "playoff run".
  19. So...if guys spend their time before the game working their position at infield and swinging the bat...I'm pretty sure getting asked to play a second position means you're taking away time from one of the above? If this is going to be an organizational philosophy, fine, but you need to have guys taking time at these secondary positions from A and up, not after they hit the Show.
  20. I have to wonder what is behind Lewis speaking out on the playing 2nd base insanity. Those weren't very thinly veiled criticisms of the BS.
  21. Not sure why you quoted me. Individual moves have nothing to do with an out of touch organization and its leadership.
  22. I think this is sad but true. Also a case where their loyalty history is hurting them. Time to update management and reconnect with the fans. He is massively out of touch.
  23. Should they? yes Can they? not necessarily, tight market Will they? not likely, other than may a scrap heap bullpen guy as a rental in exchange for a AA level prospect.
  24. What did you see or hear where? Genuinely asking because I haven't heard this yet. Completely demoralizing yet again to the fan base if true.
  25. This is the first time I've seen this hitting video for a rain delay, but I missed most of it. Are these available to watch on demand anywhere?
