Luis Avilan traded to Phillies for Felix Paulino
Not gonna lie I think this move is stupid.

Ryan Burr called up
I've been out of loop a bit last few weeks, so, I am half expecting someone to tell me: - Hamilton is already up - Hamilton is injured - Hamilton actually sucks now So I am excited!

Totally bizarre to me that he's up before Hamilton.

**President Trump 2018 Thread**
I've said it before but a silver lining even if those created this culture of corruption do not get punished for it is the idea that more white collar crime such as tax evasion and FARA violations being enforced. I think it will end up being the same rallying cry that pork barrel spending was.

**President Trump 2018 Thread**
Absolutely true, and so easy to predict. I'm sure on this forum there are plenty of posts when Trump hired Manafort about how sleezy and corrupt the guy was. The fact that apparently his lobbying and certain money laundering for abusive foreign governments is not what has him in jail is surprising to me, but people like these are always smart enough to know they should cover up their money but never smart enough to do it perfectly when the bright lights are on them.

8/21 - Sox vs Twins, 7:10, WGN (Kopech Debut)
It's rough, I'll never get rid of my trib subscription because their metro reporters do great work, but while I would have been p'd off about this in early 00s, now I just feel sad. Paul Sullivan writes like 60% of ever paper. They are stretched so thin. The Athletic was well staffed last night, and I thought Jon Greenberg's column was perfect on it. https://theathletic.com/483971/2018/08/22/it-was-a-long-time-coming-michael-kopech-debuts-before-his-family-and-23000-or-so-new-friends/

Why is Rosario acting like he didn't just swing at that pitch?

HELL YEAH thank god Buxton wasn't back there.

brilliant, send him back down, clock never started.

8/21 - Sox vs Twins, 7:10, WGN (Kopech Debut)
That was when I thought it was starting at 830. An hour delay is really pushing it.

let's ask the people who paid money to go to the game.

You also can't put more obstacles in this game than CB Bucknor and rain. Just give me a 10 pitch inning or something.

Fantasy Football
Thanks. I guess what I struggle with is all 3 seem like regression candidates. I believe in Howard as a Bears fan, and he is best running out of shotgun and he's going to be put in that position more. But what if things are so spread out that his usage dips way down? But you are right in that the lower picks being lost are guarded more against regression than with Hunt.

Nationals Fire Sale begins
I mean he's from New Jersey so he may well want to go closer to home.

I'd bat Narvaez 3rd personally.

Nationals Fire Sale begins
It's crazy that the nats never did more in the playoffs. Still, Murphy and Scherzer have to be two of the best FA deals of the 00s right?

"We will likely try and milk every bit of revenue out of this excitement by irrationally keeping the game scheduled well past when it's clear it cannot go and getting as many concessions as we can before postponing the game for october"

FS: Catching up with the Kannapolis Backstops - Perez, Skoug, Hickman
It just feels like perez is gonna be one of those dudes that hangs around and ends up as the third catcher that gets play during injuries from ages 26-28.

8/20 Games
Probably, but next step is send him to the dominican winter league and see how he does. If he can handle the craftier pitchers there he's really turned a corner and may indeed be closer to the majors than we realized.

Just as I started reading positive stuff on Deiondre (or maybe this is cause effect?)

Narvaez - what’s the ceiling here?
I think receiving can be improved, but the balls he lets by him makes me worried it's an issue with athleticism and not just technique.
