That's a fair statement. I don't know if he knew, but I don't think he made an offer just to make it look like he did something. If that was his intention, he could have just leaked a fake offer to the media. I don't see this as any different from Bregman last year.

The debate is about whether it's OK for a GM to offer a player less than what he says he wants? I think it is because nobody really knows what kind of offers he is getting except for the teams making the offers. It was widely reported that Bregman wanted an 8-year deal worth 200 million last year, but it was also reported that Harris offered him 6 years 170. Was that OK?

The problem is that even though people are living longer, they aren't necessarily healthier and more able to work. People are being kept alive by drugs, but not always living well. And they sure aren't doing anything to make us healthier. They are currently doing the opposite.

I don't think there is a big difference in talent between them. Morton might be marginally better and he has experience, but I don't want either one pitching in a big game.

This is why it won't get pulled entirely or even close to entirely.

There may be cuts, but I doubt social security will go away. I am trying not to count on social security for my retirement income, but realistically I expect I'll still get it, just not as much as it's currently projected.

And then it was voided because he failed to pass the physical. My point is though that not every player gets what they want. Presumably Avila did not have access to the Giants offer before he made his offer (assuming that he did make such an offer). He may have thought that Correa was too much of an injury risk and would not get a better offer. Bregman made demands that were not met last winter and Harris reportedly made an offer for less than he wanted. Why is that different?

Just because somebody wants a certain amount doesn't mean they are going to get it. Players often end up getting less than they demand.

I don't think his Evangelist supporters would like it. They generally don't like swear words. It's OK when Trump uses them because it's Trump being Trump and he has to to talk tough because the whole world is against him. Plus, he is saving America and Christianity, so they are able to tolerate swear words. I don't think they want their chidren using those words though.

I really don't. I don't think there is anyway for fans to know these things.

You don't know that.

Perhaps Correa did consider the offer (assuming there was an offer and that it was 275 million as reported) and then decided against it and instead went for a shorter term deal with the Twins similar to what Bregman did with the Red Sox. I think it was fine for the Tigers to make an offer in both cases. I don't know how much the Tigers offer was in either case but ,as a fan, if they want somebody, I'd rather see them try than not try.

Correa never got his 300 million, so I think it was worth making him an offer less than that. As it turns out though, he wasn't worth as much as he wanted or as much as the Tigers reportedly offereed.

Sweeney looked so promising back in April...Now, adding him to the roster gives me the same feeling as adding Kreidler.

The videos I get look real.

I don't know what a portait video is, but Reels gives me videos of attractive athletic women running up and down mountains. I like those. They also give me Tigers videos and math problems. What else do I need?

Oh, I know. I am not touching it myself. A lot of people are going to sold on the idea though.

Dingler had a 2.5% BB% through June. He has been 7.1% in July and August. 7.1% is not great but if he does that for a full season it would be good considering everything else he does.

Lou Whitaker is better at interviews now than he was as a player.

crypto company's probably have as much value as green dildos. I think this push for crypto is going to **** over so many people.

Momentum is only as good as the next game's starting pitcher (Earl Weaver)

I never go specifically to Reddit, but sometimes searches bring me there and I get good info which helps me with work.

I like reels. Of all the silly social media things that are pushed on me, reels seems to get me more than any of them. I still don't really know what tiktok is. Sometimes, I see a tittok thing show up in social media but you have to add an app or sign up or something, so I never bother.

I consider anything Lange does to be a bonus. He walked too many batters when was healthy and i never trust a pitcher coming off any injury.

So, everything I like about him is what's wrong with him. 😃
