Benintend Kelenic Acuna Baldwin Kelenic Baldwin and Acuna double up as infielders. They're not going to keep Korey Lee over him.

Well Acuna never looked shell shocked and isolated in the dugout like Vargas after the Dodgers' trade. He's brimming with confidence.

Really struggling with a $32 million arb. ruling settlement. "Smart move. He already missed most of 2021 with an elbow issue. (Not TJ surgery). He would be crazy to chance it, and miss the largest payday of, most likely, any pitcher has ever had. Even though the odds are low something would happen." And a first TJS wouldn't kill his value in FA like a second...maybe chop off $100-150 million. Feels like a Boras Corp decision...not in the best interest of the sport, but prioritizing the Tigers and his family. It's another version of D.Peterson at KU.

https://www.newsweek.com/the-next-japanese-mlb-superstar-teruaki-sato-crushes-huge-hr-before-wbc-11596297 Don't think he will get $200 million but $125-150 seems quite possible with a repeat of 2025. Depends on the Dodgers/Muncy too. GG 3B can also play corner outfield.

The difference is those are guys actually expected to contribute to ATL, compared to Sox "fringey" minor leagues outside Top Ten prospects. Well Thorpe I guess was once highly rated in NYY system.

Japan vs. CT the other day...ten run inning. More evidence the Rockies just suck. Overall ST record not like the 2023-25 White Sox, though.

Pereira's not going to get enough at bats to beat out Kekenic at this rate... Looks like Jared will get his last shot. But Baldwin is also blocking him...or should be.

Dunn has opened some eyes in camp, but he's a 28 year old 3B so off to Charlotte he goes. Same with Dustin Harriis, formerly of the Rangers.

So much for all the suddenly patriotic talk. When it comes down to it, the majority of Asian and Latin American teams play these WBC games like they are life and death existential survival affairs.

Why did Pereira get pulled so early for Braden?

Kenneth Walker to the Chiefs... Didn't see that one coming.

Paez is trying to test the Thorpe hypothesis that you can get away with a 90-92 mph fb. And Tristan Peters and Meidroth having virtually identical offensive numbers is sure something...especially with the bloated AZ statistics.

The surname Cholowsky has its roots in Eastern Europe, particularly within Slavic regions, where it is believed to have originated from a combination of local geographical features and occupational roles...

You can't have that precipitous fall in revenues and simultaneously hardly growing the franchise valuation during that time (certainly since 2006) and then simply blame it on the stadium that you basically built yourself.

That was my next post but didn't want to go there...the contradiction is too obvious, however. Also not such a surprise with a 95%+ male dominated board

After their first two games...coming out of the tourney like this was still a moral victory. Feels like they were just very flat against Australia, and Korea similarly played poorly against CT after almost knocking off Japan at home.

So if you had/have children in a public school...or private for that matter, you're against teachers and fellow students being tested for MMR, too? Because last I checked, every teacher has to pass this test to enter a classroom. https://bookabloodtest.com/products/occupational-health-mmr-testhttps://bookabloodtest.com/products/occupational-health-mmr-test

Half that for one year....

Without mandates, the cost of the insurance pool for those over 60 and with pre-existing conditions just becomes prohibitively expensive. So everyone under forty without health insurance through an employer should rely on GoFundMe when they experience unforeseen medical emergencies? Social security and Medicare are two of the most popular government programs and both are mandates. Heck, wearing seat belts or three strikes and you're out out for OWI are also mandates. So, basically you believe in everyone for themselves instead of the greatest good for the greatest number of people possible? Why do all those countries with higher tax rates, less gun deaths, universal single payer health insurance, superior public education systems, better leave policies and worker protections like Sweden Finland Norway Iceland have much happier middle class populations? In China, women get four or even five months (if over thirty or recovering from a difficult pregnancy) off paid leave when they have a baby and basically all the costs are paid for/subsidized if you're a legally married couple. US couples usually get 2-3 weeks, yes? And men have to fight still for any leave days.

And Wade can't play LF either...well, sort of.

crazy defensive snap in RF wow two outs looked like a surefire gapper Team Korea celebrating like they won the WS lol avoiding four consecutive pool exits Australia and Japan went in 2023 must have been Taipei in 2013-2017 won it over Japan in 2009

now it appears the formula they've been showing all game was slightly off and 6-2 still advances for Korea runner advanced to third on weidest error SS tried to stop his throw and dumped it right into the ground and runner eventually scored on a sac fly 7-2 now going to be a nervous ninth if Australia needs just 1 or two runs but then they score too many and Chinese Taipei could go weird tiebreaker
