Very important follow-up lol. Thought they were like those disney adults.

It's this part of the resume I wish we had a yankees fan on for. I would say it was more 20/21 when the yankees infield really became miserable, but would like to know if that era of defense was just untalented or also seemed as unfocused/lazy.

Just in case anyone wants elaboration of my twitter usage. If I follow you for white sox baseball, and suddenly you start expressing very stupid white sox baseball opinions, I will probably unfollow you (unless you are kyyle). If I follow you for finance, and you express some stupid opinions about like, seed oils. I will likely still follow you unless it becomes a primary seed oil account.

That's what I'm hoping - that they buy the trenches this year. I'd prioritize Jack Conklin to slide into RT and let borom/Leatherwood compete for swing g/t spots. Center unfortunately looks lean, but maybe you try to get the end of jason kelce's years, where it feels like C has a longer lifespan. A'shawn robinson, daron payne, Javon hargrave are FA on the DT front, with Chubb/Clowney/Davenport leading the edge rushers. Hell, we may re-sign Robert quinn since he doesn't want to move.

uh, yeah, twitter is my entertainment. I didn't slash their tires.

Yeah. I can’t believe how many people blocked out what 2010-on era Ozzie was like.

Sox twitter was so weirdly pro Ozzie last night I had to unfollow people.

I'm still super nervous about WR and the potential to improve it in the offseason. The last few offseasons have found a disgruntled WR to snag, but this last offseason so many of that group were locked up (hence me moving toward Evans in a screwed cap). You have maybe Calvin Ridley forcing a trade but if I'm the Falcons I would instead hope to draft a QB and go into his rookie year with Pitts, London and Ridley. I would bet that Baltimore sells out for DJ Moore making it difficult on bears whose best weapon may be a high 2nd round pick in any trades. There is a chance Deandre hopkins gets cut / traded with az's freefall But that's what makes a trade for Elijah moore scary. If you have to send a 3rd, you really handicap yourself in a potential star moving. In FA, gallup is the only one remotely interesting and he needs to show a lot more progress. Ideally you don't enter the draft with only one possibility in the first round because you may be run out of it.

I'm actually glad, shows they are just doing a wide range search people asked for. The manager position is weird, I don't think good ones gained that much from prior stops as third base or bench coaches. It's more it raises their floor knowing they've interacted and had to lead players to some extent.

I looked into some of the playoff org bench coaches. Not against him, but big knock to me is his role as infield instructor. The yankees this year waived the white flag on that infield D, sacrificing offense for kiner-falefa. The defensive talent was poor, but not sure I could say he got the most of it.

Have been enjoying watching hawks a bit. Kind of amazed, considering how I heard they wouldn’t field a professional hockey team, how enjoyable they are. Like Domi just going after Jost for hitting Kane.

Got another guy I wish would have come up: Chase Utley I think my total now is : granderson, beltre, yadi, utley

What is happening

Ok then

JR clearly wanted Tony

Plz long.

I’ll take this game. Now we can see fields as the entire offense hurt by poor talent, vs games like v Houston where he was hidden. Man, that draft class now looking rough. Zach Wilson had two games straight under 110 passing yards, but didn’t hear about the national embarrassment that the jets passing game is. Funny that.

“This guy is different” is apparently the latest ad nauseum slang usage in nfl media.

I just remember at the time people being like “well $125 would have been ridiculous overpay” when it was like $1.25M more per year, and, as we learned, a much smaller gap than the gap in production between him and our number two FA option Dallas Keuchel. It was our last shot to use the excess budget space to allocate to a star since Hahn then after went after his comfy b/c free agent classes, covid, etc soaking it all up. Truly a devastating moment for the rebuild. Not a doubt in my mind we are in ALDS with wheeler in 2020 at least, hopefully more.

He talked about the Sox signing Rizzo. Just a great, smart man.

I still don’t think they do it but it’s impossible to not take seriously. You have to give it at least a 10% chance, but I’m personally at like 25% it happens

Everyone at the time knew it was horrendous. And we were right. Won’t accept “who knew?!”

I forgot another person I wish would go into managing: Granderson. Hes back home in Chicago now doing. Incredible charity work. Probably better for everyone that way, but damn if he returns to the game I hope it can be on the Sox.

Unfortunately what I’ve learned from Hahn et al is that people don’t get better at their jobs in a JR org, so you have to assume Ozzie will return at his floor.

And this is all aside from his incredible tendency to self immolate in front of the press.
