  1. Apparently...Gordie Howe was responsible for a similar dynamic with the Wings. Wouldn't push for more, so the rest of the team couldn't either
  2. Franklin Perez had a rough 1st outing in the FCL...since then, he's pitched 6 2/3 innings of shutout ball walking 2 and striking out 4 while allowing 5 hits
  3. Langford and Crews are both seen as 1-1 candidates over the past few seasons from what I've gathered. It seems like Crews is rated as the bette roverall hitter and could play CF. While Langford looks to have more power but would be a corner OF.
  4. I remember Al Kaline turning down a $100,000 contract in 1971 because he didn't think he was worth it.
  5. I'd rather have the **** Man If the Jazz want to move up...trade pick 5 for picks 9 and 28 (pick 16 is too rich, we'd have to add soemthing).
  6. Given Zion's injury history and apparent lack of motivation to actually work and get in shape...a GM would have to be insane to trade for him.
  7. I want nothing to do with Jarace..not at 5 anyway.
  8. Really hoping for Crews or Langford...would be leery of Skenes is he's getting overworked like that in college. I remember Kenny Baugh. Clark or Jenkins would be my fall backs over Teel...
  9. Never been one to make assumptions about the mental state and motivations of people I don't know or have only a very limited knowledge.
  10. Just give him the anabolic steroids and be done with it
  11. Depending on the $$$ and the return...I could be a yes on Karlsson.
  12. I'd take Miller at 5...but I don't think he'll be there. After that it's Whitmore, Hendricks and the Thompson's. If we an make a move back into the lottery, Coulibaly would be an interesting guy
  13. The 84 champs were built on a system comprised of Bristol (rookie), Lakeland (A), Montgomery (AA) and Evansville (AAA). Carnsarnit...no hornswagglin cracker croaker is gonna tell me that wont work today
  14. Jobe isn't 21 yet...he's still age appropriate for the FCL
  15. OPS+ is kinda cool...
  16. Wings mentioned as a possible landing spot for Erik Karlsson...SJ would have to retain salary and not want much in return...but getting the bulk of that contract off their books would be attractive for them
  17. Tork and Miggy picking it up roughly coincides with RG going out...if they can keep it up when he gets back...that's three potentially productive MLB hitters.
  18. I once had a chiropractor marvel at the degree to which I am "busted up"...and that was before I snapped my humerus (not as funny as it sounds) and gained a plate and six screws in my left arm
  19. I like the Athletic...great NHL coverage.
  20. ????....yes...Denny was not a good person...that doesn't mean you can't acknowledge that bad things were done to him
  21. Not a quality person...but the Tigers really screwed him over in 1969. I recall reading in Freehan's "Behind the Mask" how the team was pumping his shoulder full of cortisone to mask his shoulder injury and running him out there to pitch. Destroyed his arm...
  22. In the minors...he would get dialed in and hit them in bunches. What a boost to the offense if he starts doing that here
  23. IIRC...Stanley only finished at something like 35% at the rim in college. But that's from memory...Whitmore was more like 60%. I like him as an off the ball option on the wing. There's been talk about bringing Grant back to Detroit for big $$$...I don't recall him being particularly effective with Cade..or maybe Cade was more effective when Grant didn't play
