  1. It’s a done deal. ESPN isn’t even going to try to match.
  2. The Carlos Hernandez experiment needs to end. It’s ridiculous at this point that he’s taking Dylan Smith’s roster spot.
  3. Even Jags, Bengals, and Browns fans are laughing. Kevin Warren is a such a fraud. Good on him for constantly securing all these high level leadership positions without an ounce of acumen.
  4. This seems true of most current ballplayers that have even a modicum of power.
  5. Don’t sleep on James Wood. He will be the face of MLB in 4 or 5 years when he’s able to leave the Nats and join the Yanks, Mets, or Dodgers.
  6. I was just coming to post this exact thing
  7. I am not afraid to say that I have no idea what this really means. I’d guess 90% of NBA fans are in the same group. It reminds me of the early days of sabermetrics in baseball. That complexity has proven to have tangible predictive qualities that were an improvement on the prior system. This salary model is tremendously complicated for no real reason. I don’t see how it improves anything now or in the future. It has made trading, free agency, and pretty much everything involving roster management so much harder for even serious fans to truly understand.
  8. Tough back to back days for MSU Hockey. They will still be really good next year but they were poised to put a juggernaut in front of Augustine.
  9. The same as they always do: Deny Blame Democrats Praise Their King
  10. The older Phil handled this much better than the brat from 20 years ago would’ve.
  11. Can you imagine Christian and Lewis on Ferrari and Toto and Max on Merc. What a crazy flip flop that would be. Also see the rumor of him buying out Alpine and running his own team with Flavio. That seems to make a lot more sense.
  12. Ask and you shall receive. Rumors have already started about Horner replacing Fred at Ferrari.
  13. It’s obliviously some type of flaw in the formula that is accounting too much for SB and giving too much credit for just being able to be in the lineup every day to get plate appearances.
  14. The rule change allowing CHL players to play in the NCAA prior to being drafted will have a massive impact on the draft moving forward. The #1 prospect for next year, Gavin McKenna, has committed to Penn State for a whopping $700k beating out longtime favorite, MSU, who apparently offered $200-$300k. Amateur hockey is gone and big money has officially entered the NHL draft world.
  15. It would take me less than 1 second to make that trade straight up.
  16. Yzerman has shown no interest in giving up any assets. There’s no pressure on him to win so I don’t see him starting to do it now
  17. Miguel Cairo has been named the Nats manager. He joins 3/4 of managers in the league as a longtime journeyman player to find his calling as an MLB skipper. Shockingly, he never played catcher.
  18. Rick is one of the most underrated rockers of all time. Incredible talent.
  19. Tom Hamilton has the single best voice to call a baseball game of anyone alive. So smooth and easy.
  20. I think the rebirth of Jo Adell is definitely all star worthy. His WAR is full point less than Julio despite 8 more HRs, 9 more RBI, and almost 180 points better in OPS. He’s only 3/3 on stolen bases but that can’t be that big of difference, correct?
  21. What’s boosting the WAR of his stats? 247/306/349 with 11HR and 43 RBI. That 655 OPS is horrendous. He’s stolen 15 bags on 83% efficiency but I thought that was weighted much less.
  22. In what world is Julio Rodriguez an all star reserve? That’s insane. He’s not even the best candidate from his own team as Randy Arozarena has better numbers in every category.
  23. Is Casey Mize going to be an All-Star?
  24. Maybe he’ll tell the story about that one time on Willie Nelson’s tour bus.
  25. I would very surprised if the A’s ever up in Vegas. Salt Lake seems more likely at this point.
