That is a shitty read on the situation. He said he THINKS that this will happen, not that IT WILL happen.

I hate it say it but both Morant and Barrett are better fits when you look at the team make up, but Williamson is a guy who you make room for.

Again, give me picks. Load up this team with guys who are all in the same window.

Great. This is the NBA. Players like this get moved. I am also going to guess those ratings get murdered by playing for Boylen, and by a gigantic downgrade in who is getting him the ball.

Damn, that is a TON for him.

The funny part is the initial reaction was to mock him for signing someone's son.

70 is a fair number unless we get a whale. The SP scares me this year, but we should see a lot of improvements across the board.

Or if he really wanted a try again type of deal, he'd take a 1 year deal from Washington and try again next year.

I would much rather them just dump everything in sight for picks. Guys like Otto Porter will always be available via trade and free agency if you want to overpay. Back up the truck and dump everything not on a rookie deal for whatever you can get for them in terms of picks.

With the outlook for this season, it wouldn't have bothered me. I like the idea of someone who you can bank on 200 IP from. Nova is the same idea as Shields, just an inning less IP per start effectively.

He doesn't sound like anything special, but you can never have enough middle infield depth.

Plot twist, he is James Shields agent.

It's never made sense, and it still doesn't make sense. Why would Harper take a 2-3 year deal? Are you really telling me can't get an opt out in a 8-10 year deal that would get him out in a similar time frame?

Realistically, there is going to be an artificial wall happen here very soon with spring training kicking off. This has to happen in the next couple of weeks, at worst.

Tweet was deleted.

Realistically even if a deal came together, Manny would have had to already been here, agreed to a deal, and have passed a physical to have a presser tomorrow or Friday. This is trash.

To keep Charles the Cat from trying to hump his leg.

Someone needs to put this cat down.

It was exactly this type of stuff that got the Buster shut down in the first place. People couldn't have an intelligent discussion with making it personal. Hence this one getting closed as well.

No wonder they have been getting cash. This explains everything.

[Slow nod]

One of the cool things that I learned today is in the original baseball rules, you actually threw the ball AT runners to try to get them out. Change isn't always bad.
