One of our Senators who is a 1st termer, and WAY younger also just got it.

Dude you were banned from here two decades ago and have tried a million times to sneak back in and were done a favor to be let back on here. Please.

So it is your contention that former NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR, LT GENERAL Michael Flynn, calling for the military to rise up against a Biden Presidency carries the same weight as some "protest"? And that because no one has seemingly taken him seriously as of yet, that it should be OK? You reallze that just talking about harming the President is a crime. That talking about overthrowing the American government, and trying to organize plans to do so is a crime, and that former member of our military and national security apparatus is trying to get people to do so. But that is somehow the same thing as a protest? My god.

Why are you protecting the only one was has access to power and providing a direct plan to do so?

People have b****ed about stuff on this page for decades. They have b****ed about the same things over and over again in multiple threads. Whether that is Jerry being cheap or who needs to be fired, cut, or traded, those things have always happened. The idea that someone should now be off limits for no good reason isn't going to happen.

It doesn't matter. Freedom of speech is not an absolute right. You don't need to be in the military to lead a coup attempt, or attempt to lead a coup. Don't believe me? Read the first word of the qualifiers.

Uh, no. It is relevant baseball talk. You aren't going to censor it just because you don't like it. If we haven’t censored any of the other stuff over the years, this won't be the first.

You talking about the lump of coal in TLR getting cleared?

Lol.

On the bright side the argument seems to center on people getting something they didn't pay for not being fair. So that means the Boomer generation will be taking care of the 30 trillion dollar debt before they go, because they don't believe in getting things they didn't pay back, right?

One is trying to organize the military to overthrow the government. The other is a fake whataboutism.

I have no problem with the VP getting it. It is more of a statement of the fact that he is pushing to the front of the line tells you exactly how serious this is. If it wasn't, this wouldn't be done, and it definitely wouldnn't be done publicly.

He's the starter. Duh.

Oh damn. I am just blown away. This series has kept the plot lines nailed down better than pretty much anything in the last four decades. Wow.

Can we call it a coup now?

I am not worried about it. I KNOW it is awful.

For people who believe Covid isn't real, or that this vaccine is dangerous should notice that the Vice President of the United States of America pushed himself to the front of the line for this vaccine, and he has more information than pretty much anyone else in this entire nation on this virus and vaccine.

Obviously if there is no MiLB season, you have to adjust, and it makes it reasonable to roll with Crochet on the major league roster.

Is that really a bombshell though? I mean that has been their business model for like 5 years now.

Sox Ownership: We are all in! World Series or BUST! Sox fans: Great I can't wait to get Trevor Bauer for the top of the rotation Ownership: Whoa, that seems a bit expensive Fans: Ok, well how about George Springer, you saw how bad we were in RF last year? Own: Well, you remember Adam Eaton, right? Fans, Yeah, why? Own: No reason, how about Lance Lynn Fans: Well at least he is good, but what about the other holes? We definitely need a closer after Colome became a free agent Own: Hey Tony, can we add another reliever? [Incoherent mubbling in the background] Own: Eckersley? He is like 70 years old now, right? Uhhh, let me get back to you guys on that one. Fans: With McCann gone, we need at least one more catcher on the roster, right? Own: Yeah, guys who can hit in key situations, play good defense, call good games and frame are great. Well, how about a guy who might eventually do one of those things? Fans: What? Really, did you guys just say you were all in? Own: What's that? You are breaking up, and we are having problems hearing you... [CLICK}

Flowers would be a nice match to get back, but I have to imagine he is going to look for more PT.

ASSUMING WE HAVE A NORMAL-ISH SEASON Kopech starts at Charlotte and works up slowly to 5 to 6 innings, and comes up around June unless other problems dictate an earlier arrival. Crochet starts at Birmingham as a stater, working mostly 75 to 80 pitches an outing getting around a dozen starts between AA and AAA before evenutally coming up as a reliever, to finish the season. He ends up somewhere between 100-120 innings this year.

Also, the write ups for this are interesting.

I would really be surprised if Garrett is on the major league roster to start the season.

Kluber would be better than a lot of what they could do. There has also been zero connection to him by the Sox.
