  1. Ah... I didn't know that was a running joke... I thought maybe a "commanding voice" from the sky said "It's not real" or something like that...
  2. My boss... He texted me about the Perfect Game in the 7th inning...
  3. What the freaking HECK is Fetter FEEDING these guys...? Spinach?
  4. Why are we not allowed to pay attention to him?
  5. Is that why he's in California...? To try and get them voted out of their seats?
  6. I think Manning needs to be sent to the bullpen. As a last chance to figure something out. Like consistency, for one. Maybe his pitches will play up there and he can go all out for 1 inning at a time. I think we have the depth next year to let him try this as something different (because what he's doing this and the past several years is not working...). 100% Won't happen until at least Opening Day. Spring training injuries and all. He's actually been a damn fine pitcher this year... In his GOOD appearances that is. He's been almost dominant, in his "good" appearances. His ATROCIOUS appearances on the other hand (the ratio was 50/50 a while ago, I don't know if he's still on that ratio...) have been, well, I don't even know if "atrocious" is the right word. Is there something worse than "atrocious"?
  7. I just think he's an obnoxious mother-****ing asshole scumbag. The moment he opened his ****ing mouth and started spewing his deuchebag drivel. Which was a long, long, long, looooooong time ago. And he hasn't stopped since.
  8. WINNER WINNER!!! CHICKEN DINNER!!! Or how about a bowl of borscht with a plate of kimchi on the side?
  9. Ah yeah... I think he is. I forgot about that.
  10. You're thinking of the NFL, where they do that. There's no such thing in MLB. As Ratko says, he's getting the "whole enchilada".
  11. If Sweeney is capable as the LH'ed starter at SS in 2025... Than Baez can be the short side of a platoon and a defensive replacement, if needed. He can also play other positions, so he could conceivably end up as a utility guy in 2025. A very expensive one though. But I'd rather they move on and look to the future. The exact same position can be filled by Kreidler or Workman, just to see if one of them can stick. But they'd have to be good enough defensively at SS, and I don't know if Kreidler is, or if Workman is ready for MLB just yet... I'm just sayin'...
  12. Same with CJ Weins, the pitcher we got from the Red Sox for Trey Wingenter. PS: 1 inning tonight... nothing except 2 K's.
  13. I think the Tigers stealing a Wild Card spot this year would be crazy exciting...! We weren't even dreaming of this a couple weeks ago... And now... All of a sudden...? Heck... YEAH!!!
  14. Sweeney in September: 1.013 OPS 😁
  15. Walker Buehler could be next year's Flaherty. At least I believe he's a FA this year? And Flaherty could easily be in his ear: "Dude, go to Detroit for a year! I swear to you!"
  16. SO many encouraging signs for 2025!!! This offseason will be SO closely watched!!!
  17. They also have a reliever who misses bats nicely in Andrew Nardi so I would chase those two guys together from the Marlins.
  18. So... You're projecting only your LOCAL knowledge, and LOCAL ONLY... onto the entire nation. Much, much, much, too narrow-minded to be actually making a valid point. Sorry but... wrong answer.
  19. I would prefer to see that 90-60 Dems versus 80-70...
  20. I don't see how this could be "net neutral" or "net negative". Dem's could give a rat's ass what **** Cheney says. Right-leaning Indies and the few responsible Republicans left in America will think "Damn! Cheney? I guess it IS OK to vote for Harris this cycle. Hmmm... Maybe it IS important to preserve our Democracy after all...!" I see no possibility whatsoever that this is "neutral" or "negative". Why would you think this?
  21. Or... to put it more bluntly: You're a sideshow at this point.
  22. Side show. Nothing but a sideshow at this point.
  23. HOW the IDS has Conquered the Hamas Tunnel System: https://www.yahoo.com/news/israel-learned-fight-hamas-deep-090000071.html How Israel learned to fight Hamas deep under ground Jake Wallis Simons Sat, September 7, 2024
  24. At 13 right now we don't have a "0" chance at a top 6 pick... it's actually roughly 8% per TJ's chart... Not that I'm counting on that or anything...
  25. Which SUCKS for us... Twice!
