Walton Goggins in Justified is an all time performance. Dude is incredible. He is hands down the best at playing a preacher on TV.

New rules. They're a "big market team", so they can't draft that high in two consecutive years. Only applies to big market teams. Something along those lines.

An absolute can't miss prospect with the bat.

LMAO that is hysterical. Good lord.

100% he was. You beat me to it. Tony is the devil according to many here, so they won't admit it.

Not even joking here. Soxtalk RIPPED Tony to shreds for telling players not to hustle all the time. Look at what has happened to our team for hustling to first. Yoan went down with a terrible looking injury. Eloy went down running to first, AGAIN. Robert tore his hip flexor running to first, then pulled it again recently while rounding first. Tony knew his personnel. He knew that he had a bunch of players made of glass. He got demolished for it, but he was right. You can't have any of the "big 3" hustling at this point. They are getting destroyed from it. I know Soxtalk's MO is "blame Tony and Pedro for everything", but Tony was correct here.

Is this something that can be a reoccurring issue due to the previous complete tear?

There goes his trade value.

Kjerstad with 6 HR in 32 AB already. Wasn't he a guy we likely could have gotten?

8 SO through 3 IP. Craycray.

Was Tony part of the Monstars by chance? Did he zap their powers?

TLR sucked. But claiming that an entire swath of players forgot to play baseball because of a manager is laughable.

It was at the start of their success. A championship, multiple finals runs, multiple eastern conference finals runs. It didn't contribute to it of course and they win more with Melo, DWade, Iggy or whoever.

The Pistons won the championship during Darko's rookie season, and then continued to have deep playoff runs after. They weren't relevant then?

Heck, I think he coulda been DH for 13 years
