I remember the Bulls REALLY wanting Luka.

Interesting. He wasn't going to pitch for a four days at least anyone, this buys them some time.

He is up against a REALLY low inning count this year. If you were to start using him as a starter today, you'd lose him for the year by about July. The Sox made the decision that they can get him his innings AND be able to use him to benefit the ball club. He was never going to be a starter this year because of the fact he has never thrown a significant amount of innings in a season. His high IP in college was 65 innings, so you are probably talking about 100 inning top, MAYBE 120. Even Chris Sale got 103 college IP, plus another 33 in the minors and Chicago before he got to the bigs, which is DOUBLE Crochet. They were never going to use him up by July, either in the minors or the majors.

Its the "example" stage. And of course it was Joe West taking the law into is own hands, who else would it be?

Despite Tray thinking that this was humorous, the threads were cleaned up and rearranged, along with a general warning.

Honestly? Its a terrible choice. Why would you willing give away Crochet as an October option based on how he is pitching on May 27th? That is so incredibly short sighted.

Per Jason's closing this thread, there has been some cleaning up done. -The political stuff is gone, let's keep it that way. -The TLR thread is back to being about Tony and his management of the team. -There was also separated out the thread to do with the renaming of Lorretta's Lounge, as while it involved Tony indirectly, it really isn't anything he did to apply to this thread. -Keep it under control in the two existing threads, or face time off potentially.

If you start him now, you remove it as an option based on his "current status".

The part that makes this is big leap is that they had to correctly ascertain that the right countries wouldn't take this seriously enough, quickly enough, for this to be effective. Essentially if this was targeted at the west, they had to gamble that the West would value commerce over life, and allow a LOT of people to die in that pursuit. If they quickly and effectively shutdown and attacked this, it wouldn't have been an effective weapon. The second part is that to be able to call this a bio-weapon, you also have to accept as fact that COVID was a very deadly pandemic, and that taking precautions against it IS the right thing to do. Otherwise if it isn't worth being vaccinated, masked, and distanced against, it was a pretty crappy bio weapon.

Not sure where his teammates were on this one. Even if the 1B didn't realize it, the rest of the infield should have, and been screaming HOME at him.

Its probably too early for him to start at a regular rate, and still expect to have him for the playoffs. I am going to guess they don't want him to go past 100 innings this year, maybe less based on his usage rate.

Its kinda too bad that there are fans again, otherwise they could move this game up a few hours and get it in.

It is probably whoever is hurt or used up once he is ready. Probably one of the Ruiz/Foster crowd. Could even be Kopech depending on how serious he is.

It is amazing how effectively sabatogued that they have been. Between the 75 year pension funding mandate, which literally no other industry in the world has, and then all of the actions to slow deliveries, bottlenecking of logistics, and shutting down of key facilities, it is amazing they have survived.

JINX!!!!

He didn't miss the point, he doesn't want to get it. Big difference.

And you just accidentally walked into the answer to your own question.

Tony said he MISSED the sign. I don't know why you keep repeating this lie.

They don't care. 100%. If they cared, he wouldn't be here.

Imagine that, a manager defending his player publicly.

I just showed you they didn't, but don't let facts stop you.

Since the Tony incident he is at .240/.310/.240/.550. The week before that he was .333/.419/.481/.901
