    I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't more moves across the system today. Some draft picks assigned to FCL or Lakeland. Maybe Franyerber up to Lakeland, Lee to Toledo, Hamm to Erie, Jobe to Toledo... just spitballing, but the draft pick signings and all start break seems like a good time to shake things up.

    Since when are Presidential candidates referred to by their first name in chryons?

    My cynical guess is somebody else fell through so they threw more money at Campos to use up the bonus money and Avila wasn't creative enough to trade excess pool space away. Just a theory...

    Liz must have made here donation from another state.

    Re: Senators... Different states have different appointment/special election rules. I don't know them off hand, but that doesn't automatically dismiss Kelly.

    If you are going to pick a sitting senator, you'd better make damn sure that seat isn't going to flip as a result.

    I hope Biden resigns, just so the Trump campaign has to burn a lot of funds on 48 merch after throwing out the 47 merch. That's the only reason.

    I can't believe it, even if this is the right call. I do believe Biden has done a tremendous job the past 3.5 years.

    Big part of it is likely that they have used four of Baddoo's five optional assignments. Given the temporary nature of this move (Meadows is probably back in the next week or so I'm guessing), you don't want to burn one for Baddoo. Also, it's been less than 10 days so you wouldn't be able to except for the fact that it is technically a corresponding move for Olson's IL placement.

    Worth pointing out that players on the IL in the minors cannot be DFA/Outrighted.

    There's no "willing" to spend money." Every team tries to spend 105% of their pool (Except the Rockies).

    Starting a few years ago, the AAA and AA seasons extend well into September now.

    Carpenter to the 60 is an obvious 40 man move.

    Check out Friday's Effectively Wild. Eric Longenhagen, who thinks long and hard about the draft more than anybody on this board combined (including Micro), expressed doubt about how pick trading would be abused by teams. You aren't wrong, but I also wonder if MLB wouldn't make it so that pick trades can only be done pre-draft, which is how the limited trading works now.

    If I were to guess if any SP from Toledo is coming up, it's Hurter, but I'm not sure they won't just move Maeda back and bullpen game it.

    On the contrary, if one team's farm is full and they sell off all their picks, it could have the reverse effect.

    Here's what I don't get... Vance claims to be from Appalachia. I grew up 40 minutes from where he did... maybe 50 minutes. Either way, the area between Dayton and Cincinnati is not Appalachia. That's midwestern suburbia.

    I respect and have voted for one of the men in this picture. The other is an awful human being.

    Bad example. Maton was sent down in July and DFA'ed over the offseason. Harris and Co. were actually pretty prompt in not doubling down there.

    I mean if the price is right, pull the trigger. You don't turn down a king's ransom for Skubal out of some short sighted sense of pride. You also don't have any need to settle for a meh package because you need to trade him. He's got two more years of control.

    Tarrifs, restrict iimmigration, and take over the fed so he can lower interest rates. How else would one combat inflation?
