  1. No, it doesn't. I didn't imply that. You inferred it. You might consider asking for clarification instead of pouncing.
  2. I doubt that it’s the general impression among players that Boston is more attractive for winning than Detroit. Also, I’m not sure the Orioles’ window will be open for as long as some may believe. They just let the ace they spent a lot in prospect and draft capital to get just walk the foot after only an year, and their biggest slugger is about to walk out right behind him. They may have built a great core, but they’re not convincing me yet that they want to build on it for the long term.
  3. I didn't say he wouldn’t want that from Boston.
  4. At least the projection is hot!
  5. Sure counting stats count. It's a legacy issue. That matters. Boston is perceived as a good hitting park for RHBs, and Detroit is considered a poor hitting park for RHBs. But of course winning matters, too. I'm pretty sure in the long term, Boston is perceived as more of a winner than Detroit is, and if you look at just the period covering Bregman's career, I don't believe there's much question that they are. I believe if Bregman were offered a flat 6/174 from Boston with two-year out clause, versus 6/180 from the Tigers with a two-year out clause, he'd take Boston. No, I don't hate the Tigers, and I don't hate Detroit. My belief has nothing to do with how I feel about anything, and everything to do with my perception of how players see things.
  6. I didn't say Detroit and not Boston.
  7. I didn't say he would need an escape clause to go to Detroit but not to Boston. I said only that if he agrees to Detroit, he’ll do so only if he has an escape clause.
  8. Because the Angels were the one team who committed to allowing him to be a two-way player. And maybe Disneyland, who knows.
  9. I think Bregman would take somewhat less money to go to Fenway. I also think if he agrees to Detroit, he’ll do so only if he has an escape clause.
  10. Spanish, English, or Pig Latin, I think if Miggy were really, truly involved with the team and he were named in an article as welcoming a player, he would have consented to be interviewed about it. After all, his purported welcoming is the subject of the article.
  11. I could! 😁
  12. This is essentially how LastPass works, which is why website passwords aren’t at risk. They are kept locally on machines and transferred securely. LastPass keeps no passwords, including master passwords, on their platform.
  13. I saw this at the time, and I actually signed up for NordPass earlier this year for cheaper (I still have an active membership) and thought about migrating to it, but it is sooooooo much slower on te PC platform that it’s practically unusable. I stuck with LastPass because I have a master password security.org says would take 17 quadrillion years to crack (literally said that), so I feel OK about it. Besides, for the most important websites involving money, if someone with a suspect IP address attempts to log in—including me when I am on the road—they generally trigger 2FA protocols.
  14. The tell here is that he added the racial qualifier to it. This pretty much confirms his “immigration policy’ is race-based.
  15. It might be pushing 60 by Sunday afternoon!
  16. Also: Don’t look now, but the Lions held the 49ers to seven points for the first 29 minutes of the second half.
  17. We showed the world the Niners are the Niners.
  18. They’re not men. That’s why they’re allowed to play women’s sports.
  19. Or Sotomayor. That one will hurt.
  20. Nice obstruction by Goff on that run!
  21. Season’s over for them, so why not?
  22. Agree. Money aside, getting there is a probably a 20-1 shot at this point.
  23. What do we think the O/U’s gonna be next week? Sixty, 65?
  24. Yeah, but usually it’s because of that condition they have.
