Not sure how it's a difficult concept that you have to have a collection of talent so that you have good players playing together. You can't spread out your talented players over time and expect to field good teams.

I don't think that's what @Tnetennba meant.

I just wanted to acknowledge that I love the ode to the original Mighty Ducks.

If you don't agree after seeing these two posters agreeing on this,. . . .

I’m happy to eat crow on Crochet.

I only want to trade with Pittsburgh if it involves ending up with a Yaz - Maldonado tandem behind the plate. Because some of us just want to watch the world burn.

Let's start one.

On the same rehab assignment in Arizona??

I don’t think you’re making the point you think you are.

End of September still counts as “after the All-Star Break.”

I'm torn. One of those "I wouldn't belong to any club that'd have someone like me as a member" situations. Getz said he'd bring a fresh perspective to the org and would change it / make his own mark. As a fan, I'd like to hold him to that.

The last one was by Hahn (presumably). As much as I think Getz is inept as a GM, I prefer to let him unimpeachably own this next hire.

The fact that it’s clear no actual managerial search is going to happen is the part that bothers me.

Used to be an artsyish spot. Now it’s overpriced and overrated. looking to move out to the woods to get away from people.

I even get free admission as part of my Oakland County residency. (I meant to quote my DIA post, buy here we are, too lazy to make a full correction)

Translation: Eloy will play RF for a game.

After a decade of living in the Detroit area, I still have not been to the DIA. I should check it out….

Rick Renteria was the Cubs version of Rick Renteria.

Congratulations, Drew!

Robin Ventura?

We’ll somehow end up with a Moldy-Yaz combo behind the plate.

Pedro Grifol until Memorial Day.

Just saw the game ending play. Yikes.

They're focusing his limited usage on the pitchers who actually need him. Pedro's a genius like that. </sarc>

To be fair, he didn't give an end date.
