  1. The only place i can find defensive metrics for the minors is BP, and their numbers are not very kind to him. The BABIP luck has been brought up. I'm not sure he's an upgrade on Perez.
  2. She looks like her dad there. Also, I looked up her address a while back, lives down the street from a friend of mine about 10 min from me.
  3. The DSR types went after him pretty hard and found some stuff, right? A bad DUI or a harassment/paternity issue or something. But yeah, any negative coverage of a sports team these days makes you persona non grata. Hell, Stavenhagen said he had some access momentarily revoked when his colleagues reported on the ISE Frat Boy crap.
  4. If they took those guys on, they would also likely hit the second tax and their first round pick would move back 10 spots.
  5. Somebody wrote a long book about that run? Where can I buy it!?!?! 😀
  6. Drafting McGonigle? Developing McGonigle? Putting McGonigle on thr opening day roster?
  7. Oh so that is how you are going to spin this against Harris. Good one...
  8. I'm getting a bunch of Rick Jackson ads down here... The fact that this guy might win is scary.
  9. 10 years ago this weekend... https://www.milb.com/news/gcs-182383104 "Marlins: Naylor injures teammate with knife"
  10. The changeover at WaPo has largely been on the opinion side, which definitely looks more like the WSJ opinion page these days. My understanding is that opinion and news desks are separate and independent. The complete gutting of some departments on the news side also leads to less overall getting reported.
  11. Let's not assume everybody stays healthy. Cross that bridge when we get there. I do think Montero would be a good back-end reliever though.
  12. We are kind of at the late stage result of that, though. The aggregators, the yahoo/huffposts of the world, are poaching the ad revenue from clicks and forcing newspapers behind paywalls as a result. Those papers and outlets are being hollowed out and there is less true coverage now. 95% of the Tigers beat is just all the outlets regurgitating what the team gives them when they arrive at the park. It would have been nice if they had the ability to blow the lid off some of the frat boy activities at ISE sooner, for example. There is still some value in news gathering and investigation. I try to subscribe to local papers both where I live and Detroit just to support them and ensure they can do their job. The cost isn't that much. Having said that, my Detroit News expires very soon... Just needed to cut some budget in the very short term (house/dog/car emergencies) and it was redundant with Freep. I went with Freep because Perzold gives some contract info I find useful that nobody else gives.
  13. At what point is that theft?
  14. Still got 2.7 or so more years of blanket pardons if he needs them...
