  1. It’s justice American style … that’s what you should be thinking about. That kind of lag time isn’t uncommon. My only comment on this is why wasn’t Erickson given any jail time, too, as an accessory? But the criminal trial concluded in March. This financial settlement was the result of the civil trial.
  2. There’s a game tonight … are you gonna wacha? Okay … I’m not the best at Dad jokes or puns … maybe you could do better 🙂
  3. Wasn’t that tried and rejected by owners? Revenue sharing was part of that and the owners said no because they don’t want to open their books
  4. I don’t think it can be either/or. It can’t be one without the other, imo. So my answer is neither or both. But neither will happen mostly because owners are who they are.
  5. I’d say Martin has been a big plus, imo.
  6. I think they will see .500 again this season, but they won’t spend much time there or finish there
  7. Well, maybe not. They had a BP game on Sunday and still won. But yes, the broader point is we don’t have a good BP.
  8. A new coach isn’t suddenly going to change a pitcher with not enough talent into one with talent. The problem is our BP is not good because of the players not because of the coach.
  9. Despite his words in the past, he’s here, that’s it, Buxton has made more recent comments of potentially agreeing to a trade if this team wasn’t serious about contending. We all might want to keep him, he may want to stay. But without the commitment from ownership, I don’t know anyone who wants to stay when they have opportunities to win elsewhere. People talk about extending players … Ryan is gone, so trade him. Every SP on this team is gone at their earliest if ownership cannot make commitments to field a good team around them. Honestly, if I could, I’d keep the SP, Buxton, spend money on a 3 good BP arms and one good bat (à la Nelson Cruz), then bring up the youngsters for the rest. But, ownership is committed to bumbling meager spending. We aren’t going to see a winning team again as long as they are in charge.
  10. We posted within seconds, so I merged them.
  11. Sad, just sad. I’m going to the movies instead of watching the game.
  12. But that didn’t happen this time. And I’m able to react to posts.
