Giolito speaks...
LaRussa part 2. I liked part 1. Like most movies, the sequel sucked. One thing I really respect about Bevington is his love for the game. He was managing in an independent league when I met him. He really looked like he gave a damn on a 103° night in front of hundreds of opposing fans.

They would have a playoff game or two to offset it.

Cut two games off the regular season and make it a 8 game playoff. Personally I'd love December Madness with a 32 team playoff. Couple you image the betting possibilities?

2023 College Football Thread
I agree. I'd love to see college football have a 32 team playoff, almost like basketball. Cut the regular season short. But I also want to see baseball cut back to a 150ish game season and add two rounds of playoffs. But there are traditionalists who want the regular season to "mean something".

They need to go back to traditional bowl alignments and quit these playoffs. It's ruined the game. Just vote for a national champion.

Tigers to sign Kenta Maeda 2 Years / $24M
He's definitely a guy that was only going to go to a team really serious about winning a World Series. Big move by the Tigers. I'm certain they are cheering this signing all over Michigan.

Why Sox would be better off drafting 7th and w/ worst 2024 MLB record (best lottery odds for 2025)...Ethan Holliday
I can't wait until they eliminate the draft and just make every player a free agent. Until then, a bird in the hand. I'm hoping for the highest pick this year. Live for today and don't worry about tomorrow.

I like this move. Hopefully he works hard this off-season and continues the positive trend. The downside is we're not exactly the destination for healthy playing.- DeJong to Sox
I'm certain he'll be fine with so many women and kids to console him.- DeJong to Sox
This has to hurt TA's value.- 2024 BBHOF: Beltre, Mauer, Helton in. Buehrle stays on.
Without looking it up if he did make it he must hold the record for playing for the most teams.- 2024 BBHOF: Beltre, Mauer, Helton in. Buehrle stays on.
Which cap would Colon wear? I was surprised that Joe Buck wasn't already honored.- DeJong to Sox
"He's healthier now" (hidden injury ploy) "We'll fix 'em" (our staff knows better) Front office flipping a coin before writing the press release.- DeJong to Sox
Because not many folks want guys rushed to the majors like Vaughn. It's "give the young guys a chance" until they under perform then "blame the team for rushing them."- Lance Lynn to StL on 1 year deal
It's not happening with the teams that already exceed that.- Lance Lynn to StL on 1 year deal
As we noted during the lock out, the owners are getting rich while cheating the players. Where you one of the few on the side of the owners?- Lance Lynn to StL on 1 year deal
I wish nothing but good luck for him. $10 million should be the MLB minimum salary. Anything less is just lining the owner's pockets.- Bummer to ATL
For anyone looking for a reason to get excited about Sox baseball 2024 This ain't it. But it is a nice win for Getz.- Pony up!
I'm finding Ranger fans to be very nice. Jerry, it's not you, you're you. It's me. I'm not good enough for you. You'll find someone new. I may even keep you some as a side chick. As your grandkids what that means.- 2023 College Football Thread
Texas A&M won't have to look very far for an excellent candidate. Jeff Traylor at UTSA would be a great fit. But he may be too much of an idealist for them.- Pony up!
I went to a lot of games in years that there were no chance of a playoff appearance. I really wish I could get back to that mindset. Bring at the ballpark, seeing some good plays from either team. Just the experience.- Pony up!
In the past I planned multiple summer vacations around attending games in Chicago. Now, I'll be at a game or two if they happen to be in town when I am. I'll also check the secondary market for cheap seats over buying direct. I threw away a few worn out hats and shirts. I won't be replacing them anytime soon. - DeJong to Sox
