Again, I would much rather hear about those things. It just is such a cop out of responsibility from the failure of the last rebuild. Let's talk about the kids mechanics, hit tool, power, defense, anything other than make up.

And we all know how well that ended.

I don't think anyone is "giving up" on them, well maybe one person, but in general, it is valid to say that there has been some red flags and/or regressions which are scary in that group.

And if they aren't good, they won't for sure. I'd much rather hear about their actual game tools.

The buzzword I am already done with is "make up". Apparently everyone we draft is a high "make up" guy.

Typically for post TJS, isn 't the year after the surgery, but the year after they start pitching again that their stuff (and maybe confidence) gets back to normal.

No you scream at the people who are sad, which is so superior.

1 world championship in 44 years is a helluva flex.

Haha, nevermind

We have not had a Midwestern pick yet.

Depends on if they saved with Carson and how much.

How about Bo Naylor and Tucker Barnhart? That's more Getzy.

The problem is most of teams we are chasing are in front of us on said lists.

Explain to me how you hate people's posts, but you continue to interact with them. You see it, right?

I don't know why people think site administrators aren't allowed to have their own opinions, but typically tone is answered with tone here. When your post starts off by mocking everyone you disagree with, I sure don't find Tony's response as out of line. Honestly with a meltdown like that, you could have gotten way worse.

He seemed oddly stoic.

Lol, the first round isn't even over!

Nah. He doesn't want to sell until death, if possible. This gives him a capital infusion plus an arranged sale.

Well #1, David Sterns wouldn't have old man LaRussa around in any capacity.

Lucky guess!

Especially one who seems to have a decent swing flaw.

That's a stock option bro. And even in that case the stock holder has control until expiration day, when the option holder can decide to take delivery.

100% true. The deal announced that Ishbia had zero chance at control until 2029, at least.
