  1. How is anyone going to take them seriously if they forbid gambling and promote it at the same time? Let's see if they make a serious investigation of Ohtani or just sweep it under the rug to protect themselves. How do you take them seriously if they do that? They have done a good job punishing wife beaters and sexual predators, but that's only because they don't profit off those activities.
  2. yes, We go through this every year. The Spring stats will be forgotten by the end of the first inning of opening day. There is reason to be concerned about the offense, but it's not because of sprining training performance.
  3. So, Butthead is the smart one?
  4. That works and MTG is butthead.
  5. I used to be dead set against Rose going into the Hall of Fame. Given, how incredibly hypocritical MLB is about gambling though, I really don't care anymore about whether he gets in or not.
  6. I am always skeptical of thst sort of thing, but the team talked about him that when he was in Boston.
  7. Come on mtutiger, enough with your sensible analysis. Let's hear a specific bold prediction.
  8. Kenta Maeda will lead Tigers pitchers in WAR
  9. It sucks having Baez on the roster the next four years, but Kreidler has a .429 career OPS so far. His upside is probably utility infielder.
  10. You didn't like Matt Anderson and Eric Munson?
  11. Randy Smith, for one, found it very hard to find success with high draft picks.
  12. Bringing Olson north is the right move. He pitched better than Manning last year. I felt it was between Mize and Manning all along. They will all be needed eventually.
  13. Same here. There is no wiggle room at all.
  14. So, they are allowed to keep the documents forever? As I said before, it is very obvious that the lower level people don't have access to these documents. I (and I think eswieg) was arguing that they have access to other documents which they are are not allow to share or maintain and probably have less leeway than higher level people.
  15. So, if it wasn't for Trump, they probably would still have them now. I am in no way comparing them to Trump. I am just saying that they broke rules that lower level people probably wouldn't have gotten away with.
  16. I dislike and distrust Trump so much, I consider Pence more on my side than Trump's side.
  17. It seems unlikely that they both would suddenly "discover" it right around the time Trump was being accused.
  18. I can't read the article, but I see Chris Fetter's name in there. He was hired durig the Avila administration.
  19. Why didn't they just return them? Why did they have to be reminded? And would lower level officials be given the same leeway?
  20. I thought it might be a good idea for them to pursue Martinez before they signed Canha, but there is no role for him now. Martinez is little better hitter than Canha, but Canha gives them more flexibility.
  21. Obviously, he doesn't have access to the same documents, but even lower level people often work with documents which they are not allowed to share or allowed to carry beyond designated areas.
  22. Yes, it would have and that is a problem throughout our entire legal sysem. I think it is pretty much accepted that higher ups can get away with things that lower level people can not. I also believe there are informally agreed upon parameters (among the elites) as to how far they are allowed to go. A lot of it has to do with convenience and efficiency, but it sure opens up the possibility for carelessness and ill inent.
  23. Trump has given me no reasons to like him in over 40 years. I will never say anything good about him. I will criticize his enemies including Biden, but I don't think Biden comes anywhere close to his level on committing crimes.
