    I agree we should not wish bad things on people who refuse to take the vaccine. Most people who don't take the vaccine are not being jerks. They fail to take the vaccine mostly out of fear and ignorance.

    Rooting for your favorite team to lose is the opposite of optimism.

    I hear that type of argument a lot, but some pitchers don't last that long after surgery. They can get hurt again or even have a second surgery. I don't know the numbers on the long term success rate. I also don't think it's inevitable that all young pitchers will have it.

    There's a difference. Those guys are patriots.

    He is 63. I guess it's never too late to learn.

    Thurmond, Eric Show and Dave Dravecky, three fifths of the Padres rotation, were members of the John Birch Society. I remember reading that and thinking nothing of it and it never became a big deal. I can only imagine what social media would do with that today.

    It said they were willing to trade just about everyone. That is not the same as trying. really, what is there to tear down?

    I think he is a relatively poor GM and I wish they had a different GM, but I don't think every move he makes is automatically going to be awful. His past history suggests that in cases like this one where the Tigers have some leverage he is more likely to ask for too much than too little.

    Probably Greene which will be one less reason for watching the Tigers that series.

    Maybe down in Texas, but I still think that angle is a bit off. Abbott is running, not the doctors.
  11. Tiger337
    I agree. There has been a feeling that Avila asks for too much for his starters. If that's the case, then the worst thing that happens is they turn him down and he stays with the Tigers. Since there is no need to trade him now, that is fine.
  12. Tiger337
    Abbott should be the focus.
  13. Tiger337
    OK
  14. Tiger337
    OK, I get that, but the Brewers don't have a history of making bad trades. We don't even know if the Olson trade is bad yet. Norris was a good prospect a while ago too.
  15. Tiger337
    It started out good. The problem is it makes the doctor seem like a dick along with Abbott.

    When a DH with a 97 OPS+ is your best hitter that says more about the team than the player.
  17. Tiger337
    Why the Brewers? They have been in the playoffs four years in a row and will probably make it five this year. And they didn't have to go through a prolonged period of hopeless teams to get there.

    The only thing good about WalMart is low prices, so if they are unable to keep prices low, they could be in real trouble.

    I think that is the first time in four decades Jason Beck has ever speculated on anything.

    I saw an interesting suggestion today about eliminating the regular draft and instead making it a free for all with each team getting a budget based on their records last year. I believe that would be a way to give weaker teams a chance to get better while still rewarding organizations with good talent evaluation. I know this will never happen, but I think I like it.

    The Tigers need to find some players that can hit above C level: Cabrera, Candelaria, Castro, Castro, Clemens, Cameron

    This is how I feel. He is a weak GM compared to others, but he is not totally incompetent. If they have a chance to get something decent for their relievers then do it. Avila trading Skubal would be problematic. They can't go on like this forever though. It's time to move on to another GM.
  24. Tiger337
    What are your plans for a sock puppet account? You going to troll Sportz?
