  1. The year is 2021, you're told Garrett Crochett is the opening day 2024 starter. Who wouldn't be excited! Come on!
  2. I was hoping he'd go into "openers" and "headliners".
  3. With all due respect one spring training start means almost nothing. He should be in the minors because we stink and he has some stuff to work on without MLB pressure.
  4. God that Guardian's logo is horrible. Should have just went with the Spiders.
  5. So who's going to pitch in the rotation? You just removed Cease, Kopech and now Shuster, do we have 5 healthy arms? Do we have 4? Maybe we are going for 120 losses!
  6. Sloan Park is fucking nice. Jealous of the people down there today.
  7. To be fair, it's like the 4th week of spring training. At this point, beyond discussing is anybody is hurt, there is almost nothing to talk about until the real games start on the field performance wise. We'll see how good his changeup is when the real games start in Chicago and elsewhere.
  8. Bauer's problem, as much as his off field baggage, is that he's a complete douchebag in the Nick Swisher type (except worse) casting and his team mates and coaches all hate his guts. It's one thing to be a "free spirit" when you're on top of the game (likely due to "sticky stuff") it's another to do it when you're just another guy in the rotation ,at best.

  10. You can make a lot of excuses for the Sox, but they have never really operated at all levels like a mid or mid major market team, and by most valuations they are exactly that.
  11. padres are valued at about 1.8 billion, Sox about 2 billion. to the degree one club is "small market" it certainly isn't the Padres here. SD spends and if it doesn't work out they retool. It's fun at least. Is it sustainable? Eh who knows, but at least they go for it.
  12. I'd be curious to know how much of this is player driven, if at all (can't stand the cancer team mates) and how much is FO collusion. Collusion makes zero sense, so I think it's player driven. Nobody wants these douchebags around for 162 days of their work life this year.
