I figured cash considerations would be the move. Cash received in trade is deducted from your tax number, and a player who comes back would count against the Domestic Reserve list, which they are currently 10 over.
Purdue has traveled pretty well to the west coast lately. Should have a decent crowd there tonight. I know we have overwhelmed USC, Washington, the San Diego MTE last year. It's a pretty national alumni base.
My guess is this allows them to be activated from the 60 Day sooner because Toledo's season starts a year earlier. I think they get paid a bit more for this though!
I say they because there was a pitcher they did it with too.
I need to find the article on BP that talked about the Tigers platooning their defense based on the pitcher's batted ball tendencies. A LH starter seems to make more sense to have a strong left side of the infield, while you can get by with Carpenter in right. I am going to be curious to see how this plays out when they go to the pen.
Forces a 3rd tto decision for the opposing manager, or at least that is what Hinch said when he started doing it in the Playoffs. I am surprised so many people are shocked by this or don't remember the playoffs.
If it's anything like MLB.TV, my brother and my dad have mine and I run into issues sometimes, but not often. If I do, I just call them and remind them whose password it is and who is the bigger Tigers fan, and they drop off 😄
You can't option an injured player either.
If you want to keep an injured player from counting against the 40 man, it is either 60-Day or release them.
By 2029, Greene and Tork will no longer be under team control. Torres is likely long gone. Rogers and Baez too. Add Carpenter, McKinstry, and Vierling to the list of those who will hit free agency by then. Three years is a long time.
My friends do a "dark horse" bracket pool where you choose one team from each region and get the points for their seed per win. I asked AI to make some graphics in team colors that indicate points won. GPT did well, but the free plan limited me. Gemini struggled... (Yes I know NC didn't win, but I was getting them in the can ahead of the tournament)
Depends on what you need..
I will say for NCAA Tournament graphics to help a friend last week, GPT won over Gemini. Claude and CoPilot conscientiously objected to using trademarked material.
