It's harder and harder to get big percentages when the base number gets smaller and smaller. You get into the ones who will literally never leave, and we are getting to the point where that is about all that is left.

Perfect way of saying "not true". Great job.

It's still a joke. No explanation needed.

Bro, it's a joke.

YEAH WHO WON THE TRADE NOW BITCHES!!!

Instead we get multiple Mike Clevingers

I really hope the guy succeeds. As of right now that deal is a nuclear falllout of a disaster unless Vargas turns out to be a useable player. It would be nice to get at least a guy who you can roster without needing to keep adding old timey utility players to play instead. If this thing is ever going to happen, we need to start winning in the minutia of these kinds of deals, because we literally have one major asset left to cash in, and if that is only if Robert starts to act like Luis Robert.

Or so desperate for a success that we are putting up Mission Accomplished banners on our battleship.

No no, it is absolutely a good week that does.

I will go with longer term trends vs shorts spurts as being more relevant typically, but sure.

Oooooh, going right for the jugular.

I mean can we get a few weeks of decency before we start taking victory laps?

Maybe soon he will catch the legendary Lenyn Sosa for OPS.

Maybe at your age you have forgotten, but this was the story we were fed when they built the last park 35 years ago. Instead they destroyed the charm of the immediate area and turned into into a sea of mostly empty parking lots.

Boring and generic IS better than literally the worst team ever, so I guess that's a win?

As well they should pretty much every single year.

Honestly knowing our history I am more worried about Chase being rushed back.

Because this could be the day that Andrew Vaughn.... Nah, I can't.

It's just wild at this stage.

The separation here isn't that fans show up when they win, it's that with a decent stadium and the right experience in the right area, they might still get people to show up when things are mediocre to bad.

So for me there is a fine line between just not advancing the negotiations any further, and setting up a meeting only to not show up. The first one is what is it is, but the second is unacceptable professional behavior.

If true, it isn't inconsequential. We literally let one of the best players of this generation who is playing on a contract less than half of similar players today sign with someone else for some still unknown reason. If we ghosted him to do it, that has ramifications for future player negotiations, but again that is only if it is actually true.

In 2025 vanilla is the definition of left behind when it comes to the currentgame day experience. Modern ballparks have style, themes, and experiences. This ballpark is a 1970s style cookie cutter in an entertainment desert. This ballpark also completely lacks any history or personality of old era parks to make up for its sterility, that allows the enjoyment of places like Fenway and Wrigley. Vanilla and boring is exactly why it doesn't resonate with people.

It is literally just a picture of unsourced and unconfirmed text messages. I know this is where we are as a country for "evidence ", but I want more than this.

Solid strategy.
