I mean I won't deny I caught some of the feels at the highs of all of this, but the longer we failed to close it out, the more I lost those feels. We left the door open, an absurdly low bid left the door open, and San Diego snatched him away. It wasn't how I would have envisioned the process running, but the end game is what I figured. We finished 2nd. Again.

Just no. Remember when we were going sign BOTH of Manny and Bryce? Yeah, that was great. Nice insider work there.

I said at the beginning of winter they would figure out a way to come in second in free agency. That's what we do. I really isn't a surprise to me. While the dreaming was nice, I never had my hopes up for this.

BS, they knew days ago if Moncada was playing 3B in spring training.

I guess we can start calling Rick Hahn, Captain Ahab.

The good news is that the Padres can't be for real, because I read repeatedly on Soxtalk that it was too late for teams to get involved in this process.

With the FA market the way that is has been the last two years, it is a great opportunity for teams to approach players about locking them up long term.

Page 792 could be lucky? That was the number of cards in a full year set of Topps baseball cards back when I started collecting in the early 80's. Meh, it is worth a shot.

His is the only one that does it.

Dude. I don't know what you are doing, or if it the communists, or what, but none of your pics ever come through. We literally see a string of numbers and letters. That's it.

That was a crazy game last night.

I just want this to end.

Bohemian Rhapsody was terrible. The story telling and script was awful. The story was rushed and really didn't create any tension or emotion. Maybe it got better, but we turned it off after an hour.

A chance at what is the important thing here.

He'll find something else.

You've done nothing but essentially call people stupid for everything this entire winter acting like you already have it all figured out and the team is going to fail, yet you are still here. If it is that miserable. find a new hobby.

You gave up two DECADES ago, yet are still pretending to be a fan?

Can we not do this anymore?

Wait, you are lecturing someone about THEIR level of faith? Come on.

Hooray for rebuilding!

Or have him learn a new position when his mistakes won't matter.

This has always been the craziest part of rebuilding.

If you are right and he keeps failing at everything, it really doesn't matter.

Bingo.

If Madrigal absolutely bombs, and no one else is able to step in at 2B in the next few years, while having someone push Moncada off of 3B, you can always move him back. meanwhile you now should have a guy that can play 2 premium positions.
