The double whammy would have been if Getz called him a switch hitter again during the booth interview.

Not sure I remember any body slam. Fast forward the video below to the 5:10 minute mark. Seems like the gang pile just collapsed on them both. Ventura literally ran right into a wrestling headlock. He got his ass handed to him by old man Ryan thoroughly and completely.

From your fingers to Getz’s ears. 🤣

Casey Close of Excel Sports Management. Same agent/agency as Benintendi.

Oh well… Still impressed that Krusty would actually ask Getz a good question.

I’d take that extension deal in a heartbeat right now. I don’t think Murakami would accept it but I have no faith in Jerry approving what the years and money will end up being in free agency once any and all teams can make offers.

Would that even be close to enough? In just over 100 plate appearances, he has not really shown that he needed time to get acclimated to MLB pitching. I’m sure that could change as pitchers figure out his weak spots more and more but I can’t imagine he won’t adjust. I’m sure Murakami knows who he is and I wouldn’t be surprised if he already thinks he’s a top hitter in the MLB. I guess my point is, if you already had $40 million or so guaranteed coming to you, not including what you earned in Japan, and you are already tearing up the MLB, would you rush to sign an extension for $120 million? Or would you wait until the end of next season and see what kind of offers you could get in unrestricted free agency? Because those offers could potentially be double or possibly triple that $120 million.

Definitely felt like Grant Taylor won the game watching those tense late innings.

I’m sure @Chisoxfn already knows this, but it really seems to be a specific issue with the Verizon network and their DNS routing. Seems to work on everything but the most Verizon network, which I test periodically with my Xfinity Mobile phone data that uses Verizon’s network.

Actually, I just reassessed… if you are the fan and your favorite team is the Swallows, maybe all the fans win?

You posted on a public message board. Thank you for sharing your post. I responded in kind. It was necessary to me to share my response to your public post. This is what a public message board is for — an exchange of communication.

Led directly to the movie and John Belushi being able to afford all the nose candy in the world that took him out. Sad story of success and a quick ending to it. Rinse and repeat with Chris Farley and Tommy Boy.

I missed your previous post. Do you know who owns that 18th and Canal space now and do you have an overhead image of it?

One WS every 20 years ain’t the greatest of odds. Unfortunately, as dark as Lip’s post is, the odds are probably in his favor. Even moreso when factoring in the odds of a WS winner over the entire life of the franchise. 3 WS winners in 125 years? Disturbing as it is, Lip has the odds on his side.

I really don’t care but it was basically a Caulfield post comparing two completely unrelated players. And poor Caulfield typically gets clowned for making posts like that. I was just sharing some feedback regarding your weirdly random comparison of players. Good luck.

1) Agree with Q going down. Unfortunately for KLee, he didn’t prove his case so The Master Baiter probably retains his backup job. 2) Agreed. I have been calling this out every time I hear Schriffen say it. I think he is trolling us all at this point because he should’ve figured out the answer to his own question by now, after all the times Stone has basically laughed at him when he asks it. 3) No soft spot here, regardless of what Benintendi does. A true soft spot would be DFA’ing him, paying out the rest of his contracts, and letting him try to latch on with a contending team to try to win something. Free up his spot for a younger player. 4) His value should be sky high and he’s not a free agent until 2031. Unless you are getting an amazing offer for him, he probably isn’t worth trading at this point. 5) Inconsequential. 6) Fuggem. 7) I thought Pereira was Venezuelan? Is he half-black as well? 8) Taylor looks like a future closer in any case. 9) Agreed. Was going to post this in the game thread. 10) They are still just guys. Would still like to see Kelenic get hot and see what he could do, but maybe his time is over.

Regardless of their record, when your team name is the “Swallows” you lose either way.

That’s a good SSD. Unfortunately, AI has also caused the prices for memory and storage to blow the F up to ridiculous prices like all computer hardware was during Covid. I recently ordered a NAS to set up with my younger son as a fun project and to use it for file/media storage, iPhone backups, etc., but then I found out the current cost of large 12 TB spinning hard drives. And I needed to buy 4 x 12 TB HDD’s. Brutal. Even the used prices are obscene. The NAS unit itself was less than the price of two 12 TB hard drives. Bad timing to build a NAS.

At that point, I’m sure Getz would have to share that plan with Ishbia and Ishbia would have to be aligned. We all know Jerry ain’t paying any of that contract heavily in the early years. 🤣

Not sure if Ozzie has any pull with Getz or not. I wouldn’t be surprised if he loved Acuna, a Venezuelan SS, coming to the team. I haven’t paid enough attention to the post-game show, but I would assume he also loves Pereira as well due to the Venezuelan connection?

I’m in IT. I don’t need a VPN excuse for not being able to access this site or any site. The issues with this site are specifically related to Verizon’s network, and likely their DNS routing.

I don’t know what he is going to do. However, I’m guessing he will significantly out-WAR Acuna by the end of the season. How much will dictate his $20 million dollar tab.

You should update us all on Acuna as well.

Just don’t scroll down to the comments. 🤣

You are thinking “no” that many posters thought they could break their loss record from 2024 or “no” that they can’t possibly lose 100+ games this year?
