  1. I don't think Trump has dementia. His main problem is extreme narcissism. His second problem is lack of intellect. He is probably getting a little senile as he ages and his baseline was pretty low from the start.
  2. I just want to know who is the Chet Lemon they are going to get for Greene after this season?
  3. They traded him for Al Cowens who didn't do much for them. They replaced Thompson with Hebner and then Cabell. Thompson had some good years with the Angels and Pirates - getting on base but not so much power for a first baseman. So, I think they missed him, but not "all that much: as you said. Are Torkelson and Greene the modern day Thompson and Kemp?
  4. I think three are plenty of awful things that can be said about Trump without dreaming up end of world dooms day scenarios.
  5. He's a psychopath, so anything is possible, but I don't see him as someome who is going to destroy the entire world on purpose. Who is going to praise his tremendous legacy after he is gone if he kills everyone? He likes to get revenge and to humiliate people, but he also has an insatiable desire to be adored.
  6. There were a lot of older people, me included, who remembered when games moved faster because hitters and pitchers were not taking forever to get ready. Enforcing the time rules was the best thing they have done in years.
  7. I joke about how I used humanities courses to boost my GPA, but I also liked them more than I liked some of my math classes. I actually came one course short of minoring in philosophy. I could have gone either way, but I couldn't really see what an introvert like myself was going to do with a humanities degree.
  8. Anderson and De Jesus have been very strong this Spring. I don't usually care about spring training performance of career minor leaguers, but the Harris administration has been good at finding pitching diamonds in the rough, so they might have somethting. We'll see.
  9. We'll hold your feet to the fire anyway.
  10. It wasn't directed towards you or anyone in particular.
  11. NEEDS TO BE REPLACED IN THE ROTATION BY ENMANUEL DEJESUS!!!
  12. yes, I understood

  14. The WBC is a way for fans to see international players who they would not otherwise see, but I can't take the competition seriously. The primary goal of the Major League players is to prepare for the regular seaslon. Even though some of them get excited about the WBC, I don't believe most of them are at peak performance in these games. This is not the World Cup of baseball.
  15. I would not only be cautious. I'd ignore anything from that site. The site is all lies and conspiracy theories. It used to pop up on my facebook feed all the time.
  16. I am not sure I understand your point. They were playing a balanced schedule like you guys say you want. should they have played fewer overall games? I have never heard any old timer say that modern baseball is better than old-time baseball. They all think their game was better.
  17. I think if they are going to have divisions, then the they should play teams within their division more often. If they aren't going to do that, then they should get rid of divisions. If a team isn't one of the top six teams in the league, they don't deserve to be in the playoffs anyway.
  18. It started with snowflake Then it was Trump Derangement Syndome. That is the their favorite and every time they say it they think it's clever and funny. Another favorite is orange man bad Now, it's go touch some grass?
  19. I am glad that the Republicans are starting to fear Seth Moulton. He could be an interesting future presidential candidate.
  20. They can make the team by showing real improvement in skills over past years. If they have good numbers, but they don't show pysical readiness, they won't make the team. Often times both will happen at the same time.
  21. Keith and Torres were on the roster last year too and they didn't use Keith at third until later in the year and even then he alternated between 3b and DH. He'll probably get the majority of at bats at 3B to start the season, but I wouldn't say he was rock solid at the position.
  22. Third base is not a position of need?
