1984Echoes

Need some extreme lineup measures... It's time to move Tork up to the cleanup spot. Until Baez heals, we have a hole in the 3-spot. We're stuck with Candy in the 3 spot until then I think. But I also think that Candy can be a pretty decent hitter and putting Tork behind him might help get him back on track. Just a guess... But in the 1-2 spot I'm looking at righty-lefty splits. That means against RH'ers it's Baddoo-Meadows, then Candy, Tork, Miggy? then choose the lesser evil of Castro, Barnhart, Grossman (or Reyes?), Schoop (against righties) for 6-9. Against LH'ers it's Reyes, Grossman, then Candy, Tork, Miggy, Schoop, then choose the lesser evil of Castro, Haase (or Garneau?), Grossman (or Cameron? or Meadows? or Baddoo in the 9th spot?) for 7-9. I can't wait for both Baez and Greene to be back in this lineup.

I guess we can really start looking at draft spot now... We're in the 9th spot at the moment... with 7 games left to go...

No. The only acceptable outcome is 7 straight Cy Young Awards, and all for the Tigers (none of this Scherzer gets his after leaving the Tigers horseshit...). Mize squeezes in with one at the end and the other 6 are divided evenly by Skubal and Manning, alternating each year. All three finish in the top 10 votes for the award... starting next year. Skubal looks like he'll make it there this year though...

The whole name still has to ring. If it's "Kutter Jones"... I'm on board. "Kutter Jones is now on the mound..."

He changed his swing this offseason... That, and the new minor leagues instructional team... Let's see if he's able to recover any prospect status this year as he's lost quite a lot of that so far in his career...

He gave enough info one time that we figured it out. It was a modified OPS that he was trying. I knew it and called him out on it because... well, I was doing the same thing... modifying OPS when I was playing around with some numbers/ formulas. I don't think he lasted much longer after that... although it was something else non-related that did him in but I don't remember those details... Others in here have seen him pop up in various forums other than Motown.. with basically the same schtick... that he's a genius and no one appreciates him but that he's a millionaire in the making because... he's such a genius. His OE% wasn't all that.

Anyone on board with expropriating all of Russia's foreign frozen assets (more than half of that $600 Billion in Russian owned foreign currency... plus, what else...?) and remanding all of that over to Ukraine as war reparations? Not as a negotiating tool with Russia. But a simple handover of ownership to a war crimed victim of Putin's genocidal war.

So please point the Ukrainians towards the MIG store. I think there are two, one in Poland and one in Romania. As fast as possible.

All true. Every single word...

That might be Grossman... at the trade deadline...

Yuan. In other words, about $48,000. (That's a joke... I mean, the 2nd sentence...).

That looks nasty!!!

As I was just zipping through everything trying to catch up... I did a double-take on this because I didn't read this correctly the first time through... I see you've got "spring training mode"... But when I zipped through the first time, this is what popped into my head: Manning def not still in "Training Wheels Mode"... Because... I'm thinking... Manning really doesn't want to be pitching any more, and it looks like he is showing it, with... Training Wheels.

I like it that he believes 10 (European) players will make it to the Red Wings in the next few years...

OIC. Still trying to catch up in these threads...

Aside from what Lee and MB already posted... His "charity" was already shut down because it committed fraud. Trump had to pay restitution. He also had to repay Trump University students for defrauding them.

THAT's a memory that will stick for a lifetime!!!

And this is the reason why/ amongst many other war crimes. (PS: those were Wagner Mercenaries - Russian mercs with no respect for anyone/ anything)

In the Name of Humanity: Declare War on Russia. That's what happened after Srebrenica (against Serbia). I see no difference/ reason to equivocate.
